This Chevy 305 V/8 piston and me !

I will "try" and see if I can get it to work, its just a little bit bigger in dia.... thats good as I can get a freash bore. It has the same wrist pin dia.... and the comp hight is more. Thats ok as the stock piston sits low in the bore anyways, BUT this Chevy piston has alot of comp hight, I may try and make a Alum base gasket shim to rase the jug up a little, the piston is thick, so I may be able to trim some off the top.

I will find out, not resting in front of the TV eating chips all day is NOT my thing, I am rebuilding this motor anyways so why not try a few things on it, this is my hobby right.

If this Trike was to be my only way around I would not mess with it, but its my toy, my hobby.

Next in order is the cam chain deal... stay tuned for that one boys and girls this one my just be an award winner !

Its not one yet, it will be.

As for the Chevy piston..... the comp hight "wrist pin to top of piston" is just way to much for me to deal with.
Piston dia is ok.... wrist pin workable, its just to darn tall. :'(
Owh well it was only $13... I'll use it for something...

As for the stock piston,, I'll be decking and milling things to bump the comp up some....

Hey ya dont know until you try right !

I wondered if that might be the "connection". I seem to remember an old biker once telling me that the Chevy 235 inline 6 pistons would fit right into one of the old school bikes (can't remember which). I talked to a guy that raced lawnmowers, and he mentioned something about swapping in an automotive piston too. There's quite possibly one out there that will work in our bikes, but I have nowhere near the knowledge to hazard a guess. Undecided
