Piston set, big bore JE forged piston set "High Comp". Porsche 356C / 912 ❭ 008118
- Porsche 911 1965-1968 2.0L / 912 SWB (F)
- Porsche 356C 1963-65
Build, rebuild, or upgrade a compatible performance engine with this OE Match Big Bore JE Forged Piston Set – High Compression, available under references 0081182JEP and 0081183JEP. Featuring high-quality JE forged pistons, these big-bore piston sets are designed for compatible engine configurations where increased displacement, higher compression, strength, and performance are required.
Fits: Porsche 356 C / SC 1963-66 & Porsche 912 1965 and Up with the 3 piece case.
JE Forgings are made from 2618 Aluminum, They have a 0 offset with extra material under the top for the valve pocket and the 30° Angle. This is a High Compression Piston kit 11.5:1 more commonly used in race-cars .
Engine size: 1600cc
Stroke: 74mm
Pistons: JE 2618 Forged
Dome Height: .295
Compression: 11.5:1
Piston Angle: 30°
Kit includes: 4 Pistons, A set Piston Rings, and 4 wrist pins and clips.
The forged construction provides excellent strength and durability under demanding operating conditions. Compared with conventional cast pistons, forged pistons are particularly suited to performance-oriented engine builds where increased cylinder pressures, higher temperatures, and elevated engine speeds may be encountered. The high-compression design is intended to increase the engine's compression ratio when combined with the appropriate cylinders, cylinder heads, deck height, and combustion chamber specification.
What This Product Does:
- Forms a critical part of the engine's combustion chambers.
- Contains combustion pressure within each cylinder.
- Transfers combustion force through the connecting rods to the crankshaft.
- Provides a big-bore configuration for compatible engine builds.
- Uses JE forged construction for increased strength and durability.
- Uses a high-compression design for compatible performance applications.
- Can contribute to increased engine displacement when used with the appropriate cylinders and engine configuration.
- Helps maintain effective cylinder compression and sealing when correctly installed.
- Provides a strong foundation for performance-oriented engine builds and rebuilds.
- Replaces worn, damaged, or unsuitable existing pistons.
Symptoms Of Wear Or Failure:
- Low or uneven cylinder compression.
- Excessive engine oil consumption.
- Blue smoke from the exhaust.
- Reduced engine power or poor performance.
- Excessive crankcase pressure or blow-by.
- Piston slap, knocking, or abnormal internal engine noises.
- Scoring or excessive wear on the piston skirts.
- Cracked, burnt, or damaged piston crowns.
- Worn, cracked, or broken piston ring lands.
- Excessive piston pin or pin-bore wear.
- Cylinder wall scoring or abnormal bore wear.
- Poor compression or leak-down test results.
- Evidence of detonation or piston crown damage.
