Piston installation - SR1
« on: September 14, 2016, 09:06:14 PM »
Tomorrow I want to do the cylinder and piston installation on my SR1 project but the piston I got does not have the 'camshaft side' stamped on it.
I also do not trust the previous installation of the piston to be correct.

Is the hole in the piston closer to the camshaft or to the exhaust side(being off centre)?

Thanks

Pieter

The offset combustion chamber goes towards the camshaft side.
