piston count
« on: November 10, 2009, 02:32:22 AM »
How many pintons do you have??

I have......

8-peugeot 505sx2
4-mini
4-toyota corona
3-air compressorsx3
1-air powered engine
1-dirtbike
1-honda g200
1-suzuki s200
2-biggs mowersx2
1-diesel robin 265
1-kawasaki tg18 whipper snipper
1-chainsaw engine
1-gmc mower
5-victa mowersx5
 
.....34 pistons! lol

Who ever has the most pistons wins!

*RULES* mastercylinders, hydraulic rams, brake calipers ect dont count, only engines, air compressors, steam engines ect count.

Pistons that are just sitting around without the block dont count(if you have an engine in bits that is complete then it counts but if you have say some pistons that have conrods crank(or just pistons by themselves) ect but no block then it doesn't count.

Rotaries count as three pistons per rotor.

Soooo whos got the most?

 I counted 29. This is including one compressor and four spare(2 cylinder) engines. Picking up an other 2 cylinders on Saturday so possibly 31+ some more abroad, but not sure if this counts :oops:
 Looks like bis13 is leading... :)
