How much and what are the compression options on the JE Pistons? I'm looking to go all motor so increased compression is a must...

**Yel900rr** · 06-01-2002, 05:48 AM

I will check on Monday.

**UltegraSTI** · 06-01-2002, 05:33 PM

u guyz should go w/crower rods, eagles have proven very inferior...as far as i've seen w/their motorcycle rods.

**nazthug** · 06-06-2002, 10:48 PM

yeah, but crower, my friend, is $700

ray, let me know the pricing, please and what compression, and how much for JE piston rings? Thnx

**CTZX3** · 06-07-2002, 07:36 AM

how much for the eagle rods? and the price for install?

RaceEngineering has Crower Rods for like $460.

**econorocketZX3** · 06-07-2002, 09:11 AM

I believe those are the "econo billets" which are only rated for 12psi of boost. I would imagine those would be right on par if not lower strength than the Eagles. If you get the bad boy billets, look to spend $600-700. I've seen econo billets as low as $375.

**Yel900rr** · 06-08-2002, 06:47 AM

The Eagle Rods are 370 and Pistons are going to be in the low to mid 500's I am waiting to see what the best deal is on either Arias or JE.

As far as installation goes our machine shop is working on a short block now and the head shop is working on a cylinder head. We will have a better idea of pricing soon on installation.

**nazthug** · 06-08-2002, 02:17 PM

pistons at $500 is way too much i think, that doesnt even come with rings does it? Who else makes pistons for our cars, its gotta be less than $500 for a set of pistons...

**ZX3_NJBoosted** · 06-08-2002, 03:49 PM

870 for rods and pistons, plus maybe a 100 (?) for the rings, plus labor, it's over 1000, and I think this beats Naz's statement on we can have a safely boosted bottom end for less than 1k. [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img]
Anyway, I think when it comes to pistons, JE is the one to go, a bit more expensive, but quality is ensure. Just my 0.02.

**nazthug** · 06-19-2002, 08:14 PM

actually, you can get the JE pistons AND rings for $499 at crower.com You can also get the childs and alberts pistons, rings and wristpins for under $400

So, eagle rods= $370
childs/alberts combo = $400
Main cap bolts = $70
Head studs= $110

Thats under $1k, and the labor i dont count

Race Engineering has the JE pistons for $419 and the rings for $80. So thats still $499 I think that is going to be the going rate for the JE's

**1turbofocus** · 06-20-2002, 06:08 AM

call me on the rods and pistons prices

tom

**Tobyboom** · 06-20-2002, 06:42 AM

Hey Tom? Are you using the Esslinger Main caps? And if you are, where did you get them from?

**DynoMan** · 06-21-2002, 11:03 AM

crower is just a name people , we build all our motors with eagle. we have done testing on both rods and they break at the same points every time.don't get me wrong crower is a bad-ass company , but why pay more for a name? eagle rods helped us hit mid 11's in are all-motor honda.soon we are going to build a all-motor focus sleeved block and everything, hopeing for some good numbers on the dyno.as far as pistons go, we are going with ross.
