Busa piston tolerance.


Recommended Posts

As Busa barrels are nikasil coated aluminium the ring clearances are liable to be tighter as barrels will expand at similar rate to pistons. Clearances in a Steel barrel should be as for the GSXR - piston to cylinder clearance - 0.05 - 0.06mm, Ring end gap (installed) - Top ring 0.2 - 0.35mm,  2nd ring 0.35 - 0.50mm

Thanks Gicer 1460, I have seen it on here before but could not find anything on it. 

Cheers
