OMG that 4AG is insane!!! wonder how bad the lag is... but then agin, who cares! just a touch of nitrous to get it going  (if it's only 75 shot, it prolly is for that) how clean is that install!!

stewart,
i too would be VERY interested with your findings if you were to inspect a GZE piston!
It certainly would dispell any myths and rumours about the type of piston they really are.
|
well, since i have 24hr access to metallographic equipment and electron microscopes, how about someone send me a broken GZE piston and i'll have a serious look at it..
i would probably cut it in half, see what the cross section thicknesses are,
polish and macro etch to see grain size (if it truly is forged, you will see the grains 'flow' around the piston)
dig some trenches with an FIB (focussed ion beam miller) to see the structure and thickness of the ceramic coating,
and maybe do some chemical analysis, see what is in the alloy and what ceramic they use for the coating (could do XRD for this too )
just don't tell my supervisor what i'm doing 
Cya, Stewart
