340/5 pistons & sleeves

Post by Deleted User »

I now have 2 CCW340/5 motors out of 74 400's that both need bored and new oversized pistons.....of course I cant find oversized pistons for these, only original sized pistons which do me no good because I cant find new sleeves.....a while back somebody said there was some type of Ski-doo pistons that would work if the motors were bored...does anybody know the specifics and more importantly has anybody done this successfully?....of course the antique snowmobile show in the UP is this weekend and so I will be only looking, maybe next year I can get some much needed Deere's in it...Thanks, Jim

You can look for new jugs, or have Central re-sleeve them.
