A 268 Piston in a 372??

[weimedog]

One of my subscribers did this and posted a video.....the thing looked STRONG, SO I decided to try his concept. Did some measuring and math...took a Meteor 50mm 268 piston and did this...should strap right on to a stock saw and leave .020 squish with the base gasket and have better compression...( it's crown where I cut it has .020 more than a stocker )

His "inspirational" video:


So now I'm inspired for a LOT of reasons to take this route and develop it
Before cutting....


After

I wonder how well that windowed piston worked in the bottom fed 372.

I'm thinking of doing a 268 pop up myself, could you turn a piston for me?

appreciate the request but I don't do anything unless I have eye contact with the customer. Nothing through mail.. There are a pile of folks your way who do that type of thing.
