<p>oooh no don't use V6 cologne pistons there not up to the mean piston speed in a pinto</p>

<p>Big Vern, this just says new V6 pistons machined and balanced and weighed. I presume he means all way the same</p>

<p>Sounds similar to the blueprinted engine we built for 'FDD' though we used forged pistons and an RL22 cam. <a href="mailto:142bhp@5900">142bhp@5900</a> but pulled like a train everywhere. Probably more power if we'd gone the twin 45/48 route but they are too expensive.</p>

<p>Sat down last night and read the full spec of this motor. Lot of time and effort went into picking and balancing the whole internals, even given the rods weight and how they weigh at each end. Piston machining, port capacity etc. Really well put together, no wonder it revs. Even the gearbox has had a lot of internal work done. Quite envious, wish my bank balance would allow me to build a blueprinted engine or rather to get one built and finished.</p>

The Melos I had with a pinto I fitted a 38dgas and had it setup on a rolling road. Engine was standard otherwise, made 110bhp at the fly and went very well
