I am having my B20F engine rebuilt by a performance shop in Prince George BC and they are having a hard time finding whether Mahle can provide .050 over pistons. They have tried to contact Mahle with no success. Does anyone know where I may be able to buy these? The shop has a set of SpeedPro or similar pistons on hand, but I am uncertain of their reputation or suitability. Any recommendations?
The engine is having some moderate performance upgrades and refinements done to it, and will likely be in the 120-140HP range when done. It will not be raced, but I tend to have a heavy foot around town and on our empty northern highways.
The rebuilders have done a number of B20 engines in the past, so I am not overly concerned with their knowledge or ability.
Thanks
