98mm has arrived
Hi all,
Well my 98mm barrels and pistons have arrived!! Now all I am waiting for is my 79 SC motor to arrive, can't wait. Here are a few pics of one of the Mahle (Max Moritz) pistons. Alan.UK ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Alan,
Can you post a picture of the top of the cylinder. I just purchased some 98 mm Mahle cylinders and they were cut for some type of seal ring. Do yours have this o-ring groove also? Vic

Hi Vic,
I will take a picture but I am sure the tops of the cylinders are flat, i.e no sealing ring. Give me a day or 2 and I will take some more pics. Can't wait to build this motor now. Alan.UK

Thanks,
Mine have a sealing ring cut into the flat sealing surface. I do not know you did the machine work and I'm having a difficult time finding the rings. ![]() ID = 4.045 in or 102.743 mm depth = .074 in or 1.880 mm width = .084 in or 2.134 mm OD = 4.213 in or 107.010 mm

I think I told you in your original post Victor, Protomotive make/sell the aluminium rings for this setup. I think the process is called Ni-Resist, or "flame ringing".
See www.protomotive.com
