Mahle Piston ID
I have been pulling my motor apart and I was under the impression that it was 1641. On the inside of the piston I can't see 87 mentioned anywhere.
The part number on the inside is 85ST80. Are these 85.5 mm pistons???
If so, I will be asking the shop who built the motor why this is so
