    Cosworth Z20LET and Z20LEH pistons now in stock

    Nope, still not a wind up! To accompany the brilliant C20XE & C20LET pistons, Cosworth are also producing Z20LET / Z20LEH pistons!

    Cosworth Z20LET & Z20LEH Low comp piston



    The Cosworth Z20LET/LEH piston represents years of combined testing and experience with turbocharged 4 cylinder engines. Forged from 2618 Alloy with a reduced compression ratio of 8.5:1 (over the stock 8.8:1) these pistons are ideal for those seeking out more and more forced inducted power.

    For those seeking to go even further, this piston can be further dished to go down to 8.0:1 C/R without sacrificing crown thickness or piston strength and weight, in this spec the pistons have been designed with ceiling HP figures of 700bhp!

    Presently available in 86mm (OE), 86.5mm & 87mm, the Z20LET/LEH piston also comes with Cosworth's patented and world unique anti-detonation groove profile as used by their F1 engines and also their unique Xylan mixture which aids the bedding in process by trapping oil between the piston skirt and cylinder bore. In addition, the piston crown has been mirror polished to reduce carbon build up and prevent "hot spots" forming potentially leading to detonation. To further aid performance in this area, all edges have been rounded off including the valve pocket edges.

    P.E.C. & Courtenay Sport

    Both these piston kits and their associated components are available from both P.E.C. (Performance Engine Components :: PEC) and Courtenay Sport (Vauxhall Opel VXR OPC Leading UK Tuning Specialist Courtenay Sport) and Mig club members are entitled to free shipping and a 5% discount on these and other parts from P.E.C. In the case of the Turbo rod and piston pack, this brings the shipped price down from £977.16 to £922.12 saving £55!

    Call 01376 583030 (P.E.C.) and ask for Dave for further details on the discounts and other components on offer for the XE. Please have your membership details ready when ordering.
    If you can't get into trouble you might as well stop at home!

    How much valve lift will these pistons allow for assuming standard cams are used please?
    Less than 300 BHP makes the baby Jesus cry, more than 450 makes him a happy passenger!
