[Spridgets] 65mm piston ??

[Wm. Severin Thompson]

Lester,

I've bought piston sets, new and used, many times on Ebay. I'd say the
supply is drying up a bit, as I find far fewer on a weekly basis than I used
to.

I might have a used set for you.

Venolia will make up a set of new forged pistons for around $550 if I
remember right. They can make them any size you need.

WST

Afternoon all (West coast excluded)..

I have called Jahn's and they no longer make auto pistons.  The  
pistons for the engine-in-a-box are 65 mm as are the bores in the  
block.  This would be 80 thou over from my calculations or put  
another way:

Stock		62.9 mm			2.477 iin

Mine		65.0 mm			2.559 in.


so, where can I get a set that is 65 mm?  or maybe just one other  
Jahn 273 piston?

Thanks all,

Lester
