Frequently Asked Questions:

1. What does “.040 overbore” mean for pistons? Essentially, it means the piston’s diameter is 0.040 inches larger than the standard bore. Consequently, this size is used when the engine’s cylinders have been machined or “bored out” by 0.040 inches to remove wear or damage, allowing for a fresh start with new, oversized pistons.
2. Are these pistons suitable for a performance build? Typically, standard replacement pistons like these are excellent for stock or mild performance rebuilds. For extreme high-performance or forced induction applications, forged pistons are usually recommended.
3. Do these pistons come with rings? Generally, pistons are sold separately from piston rings. Therefore, you will likely need to purchase a compatible set of piston rings (also .040″ oversized) for a complete installation.
4. Why is proper cylinder boring important when using oversized pistons? Primarily, precise cylinder boring ensures the correct piston-to-wall clearance, which is critical for proper engine lubrication, heat dissipation, and preventing piston scuffing or excessive wear.
5. Do you ship engine parts throughout South Africa? Yes, absolutely, we offer reliable nationwide delivery of engine components across South Africa from our location in Alberton, Gauteng.
