I've got some Piper 285h, and a set of uprated (but not piper) springs, although to be honest I would run them with standard springs quite happily. ________________________________________ Oulton Park in a BTCC 306 vid 1Oulton Park in a BTCC 306 vid 2 Lap of the 'ring |

1.85mm so quite marginal, certainly would be running a 1.4mm gasket.________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |

Interesting, I thought you'd need more. How far can you safely go with pocketed pistons and a standard gasket? I've got 260s at the moment as they came up cheap when I was building the engine________________________________________ Rallye Race Car |

Bridgecraft say +1mm on the valve cutouts, 1-1.5 mm is the safe clearance range, ive seen heavily skimmed heads touch with std piston at 1.4 mm.so fat gasket, +1mm piston cutout and 1.85mm lift, might be ok as long as you dont sit at 7.5k+ for too long and get valve float from pumped up tappets ________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |

So I'm guessing the 1mm deep cut outs doesn't equate to another mm worth of lift clearance then? Been reading up on your other clearance thread very informative |
