EA82T long skirt or short skirt pistons ?

Featured Replies

anyone know of the differences of the EA82T pistons described in thread title?

 

rumoured to be two different ones for the turbos

 

The one below is from what I scored from an engine that had spider manifold - when i got it. Said to be the best ever EA82T before it burst a hose, spat steam - but did not get hot, or was shut down on first sight of steam anyway.

I have pulled pistons with idea of rough mock up EA81 using these and maybe new rings, maybe not, if new rings, may as well be new slugs on a rebore .....may as well hock a testicle as well .....

 

oh, looky here

Less skirt on the genuine long skirt ?

 

Now, just found a B stamped in the top of the genuine piston. Means it is for a B block eh ?

 

Forgot what all that important detail was about now :(
