Have you spoken to Burnsy? He has been mucking around with piston sizes & has done some research. I think he has sourced some goodies. He may be able to help. Regards, Rob J Title: Re: Pistons Post by: Trevor_B on September 02, 2005, 05:04:42 AM Hi Gary,
I have just got a set of ACL 3" +0.060 ACL Pistons & Rings for my grey rebuild. They were supplied by the company who performed the rebore & hone and cost $230 +GST for the set - good value when you compare the same set from American Autos. I believe ACL also have one size 0.060" larger again. I thought these would represent 3 1/16" & 3 1/8" however my pistons measure 3.059" dia with the bore at 3.0605" - 3 1/16" is 3.0625" by my calculatons.

Thats a good price Trevor, see what we come up with over here Can get a set of NOS 3 1/8 but trying to get smaller as the bore is in good nick Cheers Gary |
