When using slipper pistons there are a lot of stories around, but most of these tales have come from using inferior products. We have used Omega slipper pistons for many years now and we find they are, in fact, more reliable and create less wear than any other design of piston, whether used in rally, race, sprint or hillclimb engines. When you wish to produce the ultimate engine, the Omega slipper piston would always be our first choice.

Using the latest advancements in technology and together with all the improvements discovered from engine developments and used this to design a completely new piston for the ever popular 2.0L XE. Omega have designed a completely new forging, it has significantly increased strength over any piston they have produced in the past and great care has been taken to ensure no machining is required to the internal structure in order to maintain maximum strength.

The pin size has been reduced from 20 mm down to 18 mm. Reductions in the piston pocket depth due to advanced cam designs, this has allowed a reduced piston crown height to improve flame travel with the combustion area and yet still maintain optimum compression. The total weight of the piston has been reduced by 25 g over the original slipper piston and the total weight is now down to 314 g for 88 mm bore, this includes the rings, pin and circlips.
