The pistons weight 585 grams, it has a 4.75 stroke. They are the typical ross piston pin 2.93 long .990 diameter. I have looked at some tool steel, they are .150 thick and weigh 144 grams, I would just like something lighter if it would work. Thanks Joe Without Data, you’re just another guy with an opinion.
