101 Octane gudgeon pin circlips

Often overlooked, it`s a good idea to pay attention to your choice of gudgeon pin

Even if the C-type clip is a little more fiddly than the G-type, tuners and tuning enthusiasts alike should be looking to the C-type clip

If G-type clips are used too often they can break off at the "stub" thereby causing huge engine damage

Often times it`s vibration that causes G-style clips to break up or there is play in the gudgeon pin that forces the mounting stub to shear

The C-type can neither be loosened by the movement of the gudgeon pin, nor can it break

2x C-style clips included

Ensure the circlip groove is completely clean prior to installation and that the clip sits securely in the groove

We recommend installing the opening of the clip counter to the piston rotation
