| J - Marine/Industrial Pistons |
| By Mike McQuesten - 09/17/2001 12:21:06 PM; IP 206.193.0.120 |
| This is for Mel Clark. He asked about the marine pistons that he says were forged by TRW for the 427 marine/industrial apps. I don't know if this helps much but I do know they have a J designation, i.e., C3J. ##. I got lucky and picked up a nice set of these at a swap meet a few years ago. I had plans of building a "sneaker" 352 HP. These pistons looked good for this. These forgings have a nice dish that should work well with the COAE-D heads I'm going to run. My machinist worked out the compression ratio to be 10.5:1. Marginal with available pump fuels. But with a regular mix of racing fuel, the forged pistons, I think everything will be fine. Just wanted to let you know about that part letter designation of J for industrial/marine apps. |
