getting ready to start a 1g GSX build and was wondering if there would be a benefit from building an engine with a 1g block and 2g pistons. would it be worth the trouble and money, and what all would be involved?

QUOTE (Justincredible @ Aug 10 2004, 01:04 PM) yes. the 2g pistons have a higher compression ratio. and is beneficial. So your getting a 6 bolt block with higher compression for cheaper than aftermarket pistons. AFAIK, all that has to be done is a small amount of machining on the 2g pistons to accept the 1g pin. You have that backward. 2gs use a larger pin than a 1g. The 1g rods have to be opened up to accept a 2g pin. Either way the 2g pistons are stronger than 1g and have a higher compression ratio. -------------------- GVR4 866/1000 = the perpetually broken car
