Hi, If one of you guys with big built engines and low CR forged pistons would like to get rid of your stock items please let me know. I've got a NA project on the go that could use a little more than the 94 9:1 pistons I'm currently using.

Thanks

Tom

 

A friend is selling some MSM 9.5:1 MSM for $75.
You want?

 

how urgently you need them? I've got a spare 01 motor with used pistons in it. they look good from the top.

 

Zabac, is the MSM the same bore as a normal 1.8? and how much would PnP be to the UK?

Y8s, I'm in no rush so it sounds good. Make me an offer I cannot understand let alone refuse Am I correct in thinking that the 01 has 10:1 with the VVT? Or has solomiata lead me astray?

Thanks for the replys

Tom

 

the pistons in the 01 motor are 10:1 high-dome pistons.

hmm international shipping eh? what's that cost?

 

USPS Priority mail based on 5 lbs $39.50. Four lbs $36.25 to give you an idea.

 

yeah that kinda makes me think it's a better deal to find them locally...

 

I would love to find them locally but it just ain't gonna happen. Its taken me over a year to find a 99 head! I'll have a look at snail mail to the UK, like I say I'm in no mad rush for them, I still have to prep & port the head and make a whole new inlet manifold from scratch. How much $$ am I looking at for the pistons?

Thanks

Tom

Edit: if the box is 4lbs or under then it can go Priority Mail® International Small Flat-Rate Box for $12.95 or am I being unrealistic about the weight?

 

The small flat rate box is big enough for a VHS tape, but not pistons.

 

make me an offer Duckie...

 

lol!

 

I need 10:1 slugs for my daily.

 

Eternal gratitude?

 

that doesn't go far when shipping is almost $40 US!

 

Yeah, they are the same bore afaik

 

Thanks Zabac, I've sorted something out with y8s.

 

NP good luck with build.
