In a place of confusion, too many projects
Can someone I've me these specifics on the 1.7 piston as I have scrapped all my pistons I removed from my 1.7 block:
Compression height
Gudgen pin bore and length
I know the bore size.

The reason I ask is I have an idea for all you turbo nuts to save you having to use a decomp plate
 
I know your idea, I'll see if I have a puma piston lying around in the garage to get some measurements from! You could well have found a nice little gem!!
 
Be very careful skimming the pistons to reduce the CR, ideally, you'd have even thicker piston crowns than standard to help take the extra heat generated during the "forced" combustion.
 
Nice work

Sort of, I've found some pistons that are the correct bore, but I just need the measurements from the 1.7 pistons to see if they will work
 
I now that this is old thread, but anyone has dimensions asked above? And deck height maybe?
