Here is a picture of the E16 "Euro" pistons I need. This is a picture of the .5mm over shortblock I built in 1994. I need the same pistons only I need them to be standard bore. Part number is 12010-13M22. There
has to be a set of these lying dormant on somebody's shelf.
What happened to this .5mm [.020"] over E16? Well I topped it off with a brand new big valve 15M FI head on it with an Isky .417" lift reground cam. With the twin side drafts, this thing ran great! [14.75 @ 91 mph] in my B11. But the VW's were still beating me on the ice so I had to upgrade even more. Just two months later, I built the 13 to 1 engine shortly after that and ran 14.18 @ 96.9. So I took this freshly built engine out after
only two ice races and stored it as a spare. I sold it about 5 years later [thinking I would never need it] for $350 to a stock car racer who ran it once I think and the carb was left loose so it was running badly. He sold the car [with this engine in it] for pennies on the dollar to a young person just getting into racing and he hasn't run it yet. Can you imagine? A high perf E16 engine like this and no one is doing anything worthwhile with it? I would be ready to buy the thing back in a heartbeat!
