That was a great video. pre ignition- ponging, lean mixture, valve timing, ring gap to tight. I bought a basket case motorcycle. The top of the piston broke off at the rings. After former owner installed a new carburetor, and timed it. Looks like lean mixture, and pre ignition. Thanks for the info. keep up the good work
That piston with two holes in it, sure could have had a couple of dropped valves, but it could have also been a victim of pre-ignition. That will destroy a piston instantly, and blow a hole through it very easily.
Very informative especially for wookies. Customers often lie hoping to get free replacements. But tell us why you do not use a 7000 series aluminum,stong as steel, for pistons or steel for pistons as is done with Diesels?
I am reusing our 2004 corolla pistons from one engine to another being rebuilt.pistons have little gauges and irregularities but my machinist saying they are good for re-use, no cracks, no wear on the skirts. I want to buy new ones but the car is so old that it may not be worth it, already expending a fortune on the bearings and piston rings from Maleh, only thing i am doing is drilling an extra oil hole per side per piston
This guy seems to be knowledgeable in his field. However, I don't think I could ever do business with him after what I have recently learned. I would think that the company- Carrillo, would be advised of this man's history and find another representative. THE WORD IS OUT ON HIM.
Hi...we had a problem where piston torned up in pieces. During opening its found long crack on skirt axis...but we dont know what caused it...it happened within 10 minutes of testing? What do you think could be cause...the pistkns breaks just like u have it on your table in tjis video..
What about Ceramic Coating? I am thinking of coating the tops of my positions with CBD ceramic. The question is how much does the position expand when coated by a ceramic. Does the coating of the tops of the position impact the Thermal expansion of the rings?
Coatings won't save you from a bad tune. The Alky pistons are a clear sign of a bad tune. Enthusiast loathe to blame themselves for installation or tuning errors and rather blame the manufacturer because without the part inspected they seldom spend time on social media to defend themselves.
Interesting. Soft pistons . Who would have known . We ALL have a Rockwell tester in our tool boxes. don't we. I do not know why pistons are not made of steel. They could be lighter and stronger than Aluminum. 7000 aluminum could be used also. All the abuse amateurs heap on engines it is a wonder they run as long as they do. Starting fluid is the worst thing you can do yet you do not mention it.
@@dj4monie No shit huh? I know the technical difference between an engine & a motor, but who gives a fuck? I enjoy most forms of "engine-sports", I'm going to take a ride on my "enginecycle", when I was younger I used to race "engine-cross". Oh, he's a real "enginehead". Some people huh?
SpenserRoger he has ripped off countless customers and lied over and over in his own business ventures building engines and such. He has used his own name, as well as “J’s performance” and others. Scams people out of money and never sends their parts and moves on to something else. I’m sure CP Carrillo is a great company and I hope he doesn’t cause them any issues with his dishonesty but they should really choose carefully who will represent them and their products.
@@braderrick I'm gonna have to believe you. It's a shame that our world has low-life bastards like that. I've encountered a few people that fit in his category, and it certainly leaves a burning memory that can't be shook. Making it hard to trust anyone. Thanks for your reply, and believe that Karma will catch up with shitballs like this. I have come to learn that Karma can take years to happen, but it carries some very heavy interest when it hits. Hopefully you will learn of what price this bandit pays.
Paul Atkinson thanks for the response, I’m really not trying to offend anyone just stating the facts and hopefully keeping someone else from going through this. 4K isn’t a lot of money to some big racing teams but it is a lot to my family and I. My dad has to save up for that and then it was just stolen basically. He is currently trying to restore an old 67 Camaro (at the age of 61) like the 68 he had way back in the day and he wants to do it right but still on a budget somewhat. The good news is that not all people are crooks like Bryce. Thanks to the great Steve Schmidt, dad still has the mean small block he wanted for his pro street Camaro lol. That 4K sure would go a long way on a paint job and the interior though. Thanks again.
Dome pistons work just fine, if you do it right. Lots of people don't do it right. Just making CP and others LOTS of money until they either learn or get out of the game. You can only deck the block/head so far.

wow this is cool
SBC 406 PISTONS BUSTED THE EDGE OF THE PISTONS 6 OUT OF 8 AND THE PC THAT BROKE OFF BEAT THE SNOT OUT OF THE AFR ALUM HEADS
Could a low rpm, around 3500, 200hp nitrous setup explosion, cause multiple pistons to slap?

What?
I would like to volunteer to be your content creator! The information is great but the production quality is abysmal!
Will work for pistons/rods!

👏👏
looks to me that some of these guys need a new tuner.
HOW HOT to heat them on the hotplate ?
Don't you think that sticking rings in boars is cruel ?
Hello
Thanks for great information.
What is a email address to contact you guys?

The counter balance would have to be yuge!
What makes engine , consume a lot of oil after new installation of piston and ring ? Thank you sir
good info...but its an ENGINE not a MOTOR. PLEASE!
It could be either. It people like you that make an non-issue an issue. Not worth arguing about at all.

can't view much at your 360 resolution
Poor choice having the biggest crook in the industry, Bryce Mulvey represent you, wise up CP Carrillo.
braderrick What do you mean? What about him?

@@braderrick WOW ! That's some pretty powerful accusations.

I can tell you why they failed you got freaking dome pistons no brainer

That has to be the most illiterate comment ever Matt.
That is a ported piston,,, everyone knows ported pistons are defiantly on the edge.
