Hi all,
Some of you may have seen my earlier post here:

Quick question about pistons and cylinders: Does anyone know whether 2.2T P&C's can be used in a 2.4 with E cams? (BTW Wayne, I'm using the chart in your rebuild book as a guide, but would replace 2.2E P&C's with 2.2T P&C's) I am looking for the compression boost they would provide but am concerned that the valve pockets would not be deep enough for the higher lift E cams. The car would retain MFI. If the valve pockets are an issue, is there sufficient material to deepen them slightly?
The reason I'm curious is that the rebuild budget has been pinched a bit due to a recent decision to buy my first house. I've located a good used set of 2.2T P&C's for a great price, and I'd like to get the motor together with a slight performance boost, before the move. The 2.7RS spec motor I was planning will have to wait a couple of years
Thanks,
Jim
