Yeah I tried stealing one off google. :roll:
Theyre 4 stroke pistons for gas motors, but ... theyve moved the skirt support inward right to where your slicing the linear window.
Ummm stolen image? :evil:
Having the support there makes the piston strong enough you can make a 4.350 bore bbc piston weigh 740 grams which is sbc stock piston weight, point being theres gotta be alot of load going on in that area of the piston.

I was given a copy of the Socal timing association (bonneville and el mirage) rules yesterday.

I like the skirt bracing. but the deletion of the side skirts on the K5 motor would cause PROBLEMS

You better.
I'd love to see another member walk away with a new land speed record.
And, if you need a test pilot I'm available....
Getting to old to hold it wide open over the rough stuff for very long but I have no problem with high speed wobbles on the smooth stuff :-D
