    Default Interference and non interference.

    Ok i've been told that i can use 4agze pistons in my 20v.
    but it'll make the motor an interferance motor.?

    if this is the case then what are the pros and cons of changing this?

    cons of an interference engine is that if you snap a timing belt you can say good bye engine

    I wouldnt worry too much to be honest, Ive NEVER seen a timing belt like the 4age designed one break, Ive seen them stretch significanly when they get well over 200,000'ks old, but not break. as long as you are careful when initially setting cam timing, and timing belt tention, you will probably never have a problem.

    hope this helps
