So with making piston pockets 1mm deeper, they should work on standard pistons. These cams are for use with hydraulic lifters (H - in the in the name, not be confused with just 285 - which require solid lifters). ________________________________________ Cherry Red Rallye Project threadWhiteBMW M140i |

I checked your project thread and you use PT81. Piper BP285H are similar to PT81 so I guess I can get similar performance compared to your setup ?Do you use standard pistons in your setup or aftermarket forged items with PT81 ? It's written that standard pistons have to skimmed 1mm. Which aftermarket pistons will be compatible with BP285H ? ________________________________________ 1999 Xsara VTS ITB |

Yes, BP285H are very similar to PT81. As I already have PT81s - I don’t need these.For pistons, the easiest thing is to modify standard pistons by deepening valve cut-outs. As far as I know, 1mm is the maximum that can be done safely and provides enough space to time up these cams. For aftermarket pistons, off the shelf - Wossner; custom: Iasa, JE, Wiseco. ________________________________________ Cherry Red Rallye Project threadWhiteBMW M140i |
