Default Ghea pistons - hole size?

Anyone know if the hole sizes that are used in Ghea pistons are exactly the same as the schumacher parts?

Using a set up which uses 6 hole front pistons and 40w oil but it doesnt seem to have much damping.. Just wanted to make sure the ghea were the same diameter holes or if I should use the schuey rounded variants?

Ta Adam...

6 should really be in the rear and 4 or 5 in the front we had to go up 5wt oil with ghea pistons, not sure on hole size

I have swapped the pistons round based on the Danny Magee ardent set up on the schuey website.

Will give it a try, can always swap it back...

Hole sizes are the same, I helped with the first prototype ones from P-Dub and we worked from the standard Schumacher size.

I went up about 5w, but I was never sure re the hole size.

I think they are great - what general config do you run Simon, I've got 4 hole front and 5 hole rear at present in the SV. Been mulling getting another pair of 5 hole and trying 5 hole all round.
