that a TFSi crank you were installing matt? what pistons were supplied to go with it?

Eurospec sport one for example have very short slipper pistons in their 2ltr crank kit I believe.. which is why I guess they clear the oil squirters ok

Apperantly it is a TFsi crank yeah, The pistons are JE items just like the ones you supplied but with the pin moved. We have to space oil sprays 1-3 and machine no4 apparently. Doing it this sunday coming.
