FORGED PISTON SETS

TWIN CAM ® PISTONS

REPLACEMENT FORGED ALUMINUM PISTON

No.1608

JIMS ® pistons represent an advancement in piston design and function. These pistons now incorporate the latest oil control technology with 3mm oiling control ring grooves, and advanced piston skirt design. By reducing the oil control ring to a 3mm thickness there is less internal friction, which reduces heat, and creates more power. The piston skirts have also been optimized to take full advantage of piston support without incurring more friction. The rear pis- ton’s, non thrust face portion, receives a radial notch to clear the full skirt of the front piston. This design gives the front piston more support while still allow- ing proper piston-to-piston clearance. Replacement pistons retain original design piston notching.

Compression Height

O.D.

The compression height (C.H.) is measured from the cen- terline of the wrist pin to the piston deck (the top outer most edge of the piston w/out dome). A minimum piston- to-head clearance of .040” should be maintained when using steel connection rods. To determine this clearance, combine the compression height with a compressed cylinder base gasket’s thickness. COMPRESSION HEIGHT CLEARANCE Though dependent on several factors, JIMS ® recommends that valve pocket clearance be kept to a .060” clearance for both intake and exhaust valves. Note: Always check valve clearance with clay and fully solid tappets before turning engine over. VALVE POCKET DEPTH Unless otherwise specified, all compression ratios are based on stock heads, cylinder, and stroke. Refer to your equipment manufacturer’s literature for specifications. COMPRESSION RATIOS

**Compression ratios based on 85.9cc head with .040” head gas ket and 9.5cc piston dish at zero deck height.
