Title: Is it a 575 piston?
Post by: beakeck on July 29, 2009, 02:35:27 AM

Guys

Just took my head/barrel of (1st time ive done this) & the barrel has def had a steel sleeve & the piston has 575 stamped at the top & also stamped under neath (where conrod connects). Is this a 575 kit then??

Need to know your opinions as I am doing a engine overhaul top & bottom & need the piston size so I can get the correct piston kit?????

I will get it measured but Im far away from the nearset garage at the mo.

Many thanks for your help!
