Piston question

[07EigerRider]

How much side to side play should there be on the piston? I have a Namura .60 on a Wiseco crank if it makes any difference

 

[03blasteryfs03]

seven thousands? or 12 i dont remeber look on the piston box

Do you mean piston to rod or piston to cylinder.
or is your rod moving on the crank?

 

[03blasteryfs03]

the rod to crank can move side to side a lil not up or down same with piston to rod but piston to rod is tighter side to side

 

[07EigerRider]

The piston is on the rod and has a total of about 1/4 to 3/4 inch of play

 

[fioz600r]

wow thats alot bro did you put the thrush washers on?

 

[UniRacing]

his piston can move from side to side in his cylnder as far as ive read

 

[fioz600r]

No I think he is talking about on the rod wrist pin

 

[UniRacing]

Nah..

crazy 15 trick

 

[07EigerRider]

It looks like the piston moves on the wrist pin then the wrist pin moves on the connecting rod, adding up to that much play.

I think he is talking about the movement between the top of the connecting rod and piston
The bottom of the rod should be .025 to .028 inches
The piston to cylinder should be .003 to .0037 inches
