Title: 214524 Piston
Post by: Negrey on February 11, 2019, 06:13:56 pm

Hey, wondering if anyone can help with getting rings for this piston. Stamped on it is 214524 and it came from engine 28T707 1154-E1 9902232D, it is an I/C and STD bore, is it a revision of the 696397 piston? I can post pictures if that will help. Thanks!!

Ring set used after 01 is pt#696403 fits 696397 piston
Before 01 is or #499996
By your date code your motor is a 99

Also the # on top of the piston is not a part# fyi

What is the number on the top of the piston. I have noticed that number does not match the number on the box. Can the number on top of the piston be crossed to a part number? I have several piston without the box. Thanks

Thanks for your answers guys, I did find in another post that number isn't a part number. Will 499998 be the 0.020 over rings for my piston? Is file fitting oversize rings to stock pistons the way to go?

499998 is.020 for your piston,i am not a fan of filing oversize rings to a standard bore,each ring is made for a specific bore,so filling oversize rings to fit standard bore,just adds more ring drag and makes rings out of round in the bore

That's really to bad.If we don't have the box or know exactly what it is for that makes it a guess. Could be a good guess but a still a guess. It really is a good thing most of us know what we are dealing with.
