High Performance Racing Forged Piston Kits 8.4-1, and 9.5-1 Compression Ratio’s R&D works very close with CP Performance testing and co-developing with them to bring Forged Racing Piston Kits developed for the hard core race enthusiasts or precision engine builders who are looking to gain maximum piston strength and horsepower with ultimate reliability from their racing engines. R&D offers the highest quality forged aluminum, heat treated, and CNC machined racing pistons in stock or oversized, and in 8.45-1(OEM) or 9.5-1 (special order only)compression ratios to replace O.E.M. cast aluminum pistons known to be less reliable in high performance, high heat boosted conditions. High horsepower marine engines with high boost pressures are more prone to have detonation over conventional racing engines due to sustained loads. Forged pistons in marine applications are a must. Whatever performance platform you are planning to build, trust the pros at R&D with all your compression ratio, boost, and engine management needs. • Direct replacement piston kits for High H.P. applications (8.45-1 comp ratio) • High quality “forged materials” replace cheap low performance cast pistons • Improved ring seal with CPN Style ring sets • Increased RPM’s and horsepower by reducing weight over stock • Works great with high boost compressor wheels and turbo kits 100mm STD Replacement (stock bore size/direct replacement) Pt. # 432-00000 for 8.45-1 compression, 100mm Oversize (3 Piston Kit) Pt. # 432-00000 for 9.5-1 compression, 100mm Oversize (3 Piston Kit)(special order only) 100mm +.25 mm Oversize Pt. # 432-00000 for 8.45-1 compression, 100.25mm Oversize (3 Piston Kit) Pt. # 432-00000 for 9.5-1 compression, 100.25mm Oversize (3 Piston Kit)(special order only) 100mm +.50 mm Oversize Pt. # 432-00000 for 8.45-1 compression, 100.50 mm Oversize (3 Piston Kit) Pt. # 432-00000 for 9.5-1 compression, 100.50 mm Oversize (3 Piston Kit) (special order only) Direct Replacement Ring kit Specify Piston Size (for 1 Piston) Pt. # 432-00000 for 8.45-1 compression, OEM Replacement (3 Piston Kit) Pt. # 432-00000 for 9.5-1 compression, OEM Bore (3 Piston Kit)

R&D High Performance Racing Head Gaskets for the 300 engine will directly replace the OEM head gasket with a much higher performing Multi Layer Steel Stack Design (MLS), utilizing state of the art materials and high temperature coatings proven to withstand extreme heat generated from high cylinder pressures in high boost performance engine packages. Each gasket is deep dual embossed (both sides) and Viton Coated to promote a positive seal. Use the R&D Head Gasket with confidence in standard replacement situations or Pro Race Engines. Our race proven Gaskets will maintain a positive seal with up to 24 pounds of boost. Available in standard and over bore sizes, call R&D for specials. NOTE: Specify bore size when ordering.

We have been using this tool for almost a month and all we have to say is that it is a MUST HAVE tool for your workshop or your tool box. It is lightweight and easy to use. Measuring units are Nm, kg-cm, ft-lb and in-lb in a range of 8-80Nm. It offers a set a trace mode and a peak mode and everything is adjusted via three buttons. When you are reaching 90% of th target value an intermittent buzzer will start to worn you. Then when the target value is reached, a high-frequent buzzer will warn you not to pull any further. The ratchet wrench is connected to the top (female adapter) and the socket or extension to the male socket. It is not waterproof so you have to be aware of that. It is recommended 100%. When you start using it you find out how handy it is. Available from Weberpower.com

Whoever has seen the Corsican rider Jean-Babptiste Botti (pictured on the right) riding a stand-up knows very well what he is capable of. Our source from OHConcept Preparation informed us that Jean-Baprtiste Botti and Michael Poret will be riding the new ski that the Team prepares for this season. The ski will feature and new Yamaha three-cylinder set-up in a 1200cc spec and soon there will be a 1300cc to follow. Botti and Poret will race in the French championship. Belgian rider Antoine Goethals has been helping the Team with the winter testing program however he will race too in the French championship and in UIM series.

Since it is official that Chris MacClugage will be racing with Kommander K1 we asked Chris what are his first thoughts regarding the K1 triple. He tested the same Ski (Dustin’s practice Ski) on Friday before the Mark Hahn race. “I loved it! It was way less aggressive to ride than what I have been racing. Which makes a more comfortable ride for an old guy like me. I am excited as we will work on a specific Macc model for Dustin and myself to sell.”
