I know the barrel size is 87mm (compared to the standard 85.5mm for 1600), what about the piston diameter? Is it any larger for the 1641 or the same as 1600 but with bigger rings?
Thanks

Pistons are 87mm as well

OK I think they are 1/2 a pubic hair under so they fit but they are definitely bigger than 85.5 ones

Futue te ipsum!!!
