GHEA pistons (which way up!)

[Bigbaddave]

This is probably a daft question but just got some GHEA pistons for my B44.1, which way do they go in tappered side up or down?

tapered side down

Either way...

If I understand it right the spring absorbs the bump and it is the job of a damper to control the return. If a faster return was better then surely no damper would be 'best'.

I too understood (and read somewhere) that it doesn't matter which way up they go.
