Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Why do I need a +0.005" oversize piston?
A: An oversize piston is required when your cylinder bore has been machined or honed to remove imperfections, wear, or scoring. The +0.005" size ensures the correct clearance between the piston and the cylinder wall for optimal compression and engine longevity.
Q: Does this kit include the rings?
A: Yes, this Burris Animal Piston Kit comes complete with the necessary rings, ensuring you have a matched set for an airtight seal and improved combustion efficiency.
Q: How do I know if my engine needs this specific size?
A: You should measure your cylinder bore with a precision bore gauge. If the cylinder has been honed to 0.005" over the standard factory specification, this kit is the correct choice to maintain proper piston-to-wall clearance.
Q: Can I use this in a standard, non-honed cylinder?
A: No. Installing an oversize piston into a standard-bore cylinder will result in excessive friction, potential engine seizure, and catastrophic damage. Always verify your bore size before installation.
Q: What are the performance benefits of this kit?
A: By refreshing the combustion chamber and ensuring a tight seal with the included rings, this kit reduces blow-by gases. This leads to better mid-range torque, improved throttle response, and more consistent power output during races.
