What kind of pistons are used in flat top engines?

Choose from many styles piston profiles and compression ratios to build just the performance you want. There are forged aluminum pistons, Hypereutectic alloy pistons, cast pistons, flat top and special application pistons made for increased oil control and blower or turbo applications.

What’s the WoT for a Harley Davidson se?

If this is from a HD dealership your A/F will be choked off to 13.6 at WOT (the dotted line on the bottom of ALL dealership 250i dyno charts) because their hands are tied by law. You really need to uplift that number on your own. Since you have the SE tuner dongle it is not hard to do. Why did you select the 254E over the 255? Just curious

What kind of pistons do JEGS engines use?

JEGS carries thousands of high performance pistons for standard and oversized bores. Choose from many styles piston profiles and compression ratios to build just the performance you want.

How many G’s does a flat top piston have?

At lower rpm, the piston may experience only about 400 g’s of acceleration and deceleration. In other words, the piston exerts 400 times as much force on the piston as it weighs. At 10,000 rpm, the piston may see as high as 9,000 or 10,000 g’s.

Which is better a flat top or dished piston?

But this comes with a bit of a weight penalty versus a flat-top piston, so the dished piston is more suitable for large-displacement, low-rpm engines. All of this makes the flat-top piston preferable for most performance engines, particularly those that don’t use hemispherical combustion chambers.
