AA Performance Machine In Thick Wall 88mm Cast Barrel & Piston Kit.
This kit is designed to bolt onto a standard 1300-1600cc Type-1 engine case with the standard 69mm crankshaft but as it is the thick-wall version requires the cylinder head to be machined to fit. Installing this kit will increase displacement to 1679cc without the need to machine the crankcase but requires the 90.5/92mm sized heads, which can be machined from 1600cc heads or bought as new items from our range.
This AA Performance kit includes the piston rings, guedgeon pins and clips as well as the barrels & pistons; a complete set for 1 engine.
AA Performance Barrels & Piston kits are good quality items, manufactured by an Aircooled VW engine parts specialist who produce a huge range of stock and high performance engine components for your Classic VW.
