Hi all,

Hey ! Im thinking of an engine rebuild and need your help please.

Are the forged pistons the best solution to prevent pistons failure for B48A ? What brand of forget piston do you recommend ? Best compression rate for this engine ? 11:1 or 10:5 to prevent failures ? for a normal use or maybe a stage 1, do i have also to change the rods ?

Thanks a lot for your help !

Have a look on YouTube. There's a guy called Shane from Trinidad who's just fine a forged engine for his 330e with the b48 engine
