I would be looking pistons for 1.8 overbore 2 with low compression and good set of rings.
No hurry here either, but I am ready whenever GB takes place.

that's a bridge to cross later.
Gotcha, wasn't sure if you could mix/match...thanks.

yeah, but calm down fellas. let's clean up one disaster before creating the next...

also, the pistons just need to be ordered in lots of 2, so we don't need to set up a big gb to get the same price, so it would be possible to order them in a couple different batches.

So, I guess I should send them out in the order that you guys paid. IE first to pay gets the first set and so on. Unless someone has a dire need, like their motor is split open & they won't be able to drive until they get them. Does anyone have a problem with this? Does anyone have a more urgent need?
