Ok, so what's the bad experience with the Engle 110? Am running one in my
Baja that is up to about 35,000 miles with no problems.

I finally got my hands on three used 88 pistons for the motor I had in my bus. So I am putting that one back together now. IMHO slip in 88 cylinder walls are too thin. The machine in 88 walls are very thick. As for cams, My favorite for a bus motor is a scat c25 or engle 100. After my last experience with a 110, I will probably never put one in a street motor again. The guy I got the used 88s from also had a set of new forged 88s for a 78 mm stroker crank. Pistons only for $50.

I run 88mm Forged pistons with a 110 engle cam , the 88's are slip in, I haven't had any trouble ,butttt ,I think I am extremly lucky , I also change my oil almost after every trip , 200 miles or more, Bob says that his theory is that the folks break the bottom of the skirts as their installing them , butttt, I know I wouldn't have used 88's if I had read all the horror stories first. 1776 is what I 'll probably do next , with straight cut cam gear , . Good luck , 88's or rearist of the rare at most shops
