ok im looking at kits on rb and first of all i thought these things were like $400, but i guess not.



my question is, whats the diff between these two kits, other than the obvious from the parts list, and why is the "race" kit more expensive? is there anything in these kits that i wouldnt really need in order to save some money?

sorry i meant less expensive, which is why i was asking, it seems like the 3mm carbon seals would be more than the stock seals

Yah really, mind telling the benefits of using the aviation kit?

guitarjunkie28 03-06-2005 06:57 PM

it's cheap and it works.



what more do you need?

guitarjunkie28 03-06-2005 06:57 PM

ok, i suppose the silicone/teflon coolant seals are a big plus...they're reusable too https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png
