356 pistons ???

Post by RobFrost »

In my search for 911 pistons I noticed these pistons which appear to be nice original Mahle 83mm 356 pistons mis-listed as 911 pistons. Just thought I'd mention it in case they're a useful bargain for somebody. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/385432899633

Don't take my word for it as I know little about such things.

2001 996 Turbo, Lapis blue (am I allowed to put that here?)
I'm looking for a pre-impact bumper 911S or other high-revving 911 to restore - please let me know if you see one.

I don't think 93mm is correct for the 356? A big bore piston (1720cc) is 86mm

Just saw your typo. Yes 83mm is correct
