New here! Finally getting around to workimg on pop's old DT. Got a Rex's ignition kit on the way, Cylinder bore in great shape but I need a piston. Anybody here have pistons and rings for sale? Found a small crack on my piston skirt. The existing piston has .020 stamped on the head, and RT2 embossed inside it. I'm assuming that's not a dt360A piston? Should I find another RT2 .020 piston or go back with a dt360A piston? From my measuring attempts with a caliper this is what I gathered:
Piston diameter
Just below rings 80.21mm
@ Wrist pin 80.38mm
@ piston Skirt 80.37mm
Cylinder
Near Skirt 80.46mm
Near Top 80.49mm
Ill take the jug and piston to work tomorrow and try to get a better measurement with a t-guage and micrometer.
Hello, and welcome to the forum ......
Although these DT360 pistons are obsolete, and very hard to find, I do have all of the over-sizes.
I used to have a cylinder boring business, so I'm one of the few people that still have some of these.
Let me know what size you want, and perhaps I can fix you up with a new set.
