piston needed

[Phil Minkkinen]

I am in need of a piston for an International 500 E dozer with a diesel engine. The engine is a 3 cylinder, 155 cid, but a piston from 176 cid 3 cylinder engine will also work. If you have one, please drop me a message.

The 155 is a German built engine. There are differences in the sleeves if I remember correctly. A piston from a 310 six cylinder (same engine family) which around here is a lot more common would be easier to find & should have the same dimensions (3.875 inch bore).

phill The other poster is correct you could also uses the other piston. I should have you 3 cyl 500 piston. Will check in the morning and let you know.. Where are you located? Think I have a complete engine with bad crank..In Tennessee

I am in northern Minnesota in Two Harbors. The piston is 4 1/4 inch from top to bottom. The wrist pin hole is about 1 3/8 (I did not have a caliper in the house) there is also a depression in the top of the piston that measures about 3/4 deep and about 2 1/4 across. If this sounds like the piston you might have, I think we are in business. How much will it cost me?
