Piston difference
« on: February 12, 2019, 06:45:02 am »
Hi guys fairly new here, been doing a lot of reading to help with my motor, looking at the 31ci pistons and seeing 2 numbers referring to date codes before and after just wondering if someone could tell me the difference between the 2 whether it be thinner or thicker rings, flat top etc etc the numbers are as follows for a 31p677 - 594539 used before date code 14100100
 And 594435 used after date code 14093000 so are there any huge differences I should be aware of? Any insight would be greatly appreciated thanks in advance!

 Not sure if this helps but I'll try. In my extra parts I have a piston labeled stock 31 214813 STD. Compression rings are 0.062 and oil ring 0.099

What is the serial # on valve cover or engine tag?

After some more reading on the forum I found that number that is stamped in the top of the piston is NOT the part number.

The engine is a 31p677-0132-B1, I appreciate your responses, I ended up doing some more digging and found my answer, # 594435 piston is on order and on its way, thanks again everyone!,
