JE pistons are GARBAGE

Sorry too hear that....at least it's just a piston with no other damage. I have heard of several REDESIGNS of the Raptor JE pistons. We know good and well that JE would not redesign a product if they were not having trouble. Anyone ever heard of them admitting too a failure of their product?

Gary. At this time I'm 90% sure its just the piston. I Haven't opened it up yet. The signs and what happened the first time the piston cracked and obtained a hole are similar. We'll see.

Thanks for the link Maddog. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

Mario, thanks for the offer, you are the shizzle. LOL, but my Rappy is already a 102mm bore. I want to keep the blue Rappy just piped and jetted. The wife occasionaly gets on that one. See you at Pismo this summer.
