Clevite pistons

Hi there,
A friend of mine, 911 race engine builder in France is looking for Clevite pistons. The reference part number should be Ps 102.017.
My questions are
-Can we find them somewhere?
-Do they fit in a 1978 3 liters SC engine?

Any help will be appreciated.
Thank you,
Claude

Hi there,
84 vues in 3 days and not a word of advice?
Can anyone tell me anything about these pistons? I believe they are somewhat of the same provenance as Mahle since I saw the two names together in some websites but no Porsche application with the Clevite name alone...
Please, somebody help me.
The engine builder build the engine for the well known French Rallye Champion Gilles Nantet who race Porsches for years and was French Champion in 2011 with a 996 and just stepped-up this year with a 997. You can find beautiful Rallye videos of his practices and races on utub, very well filmed.
The engine builder use to build engines for the Freisinger Motorsport in Germany.
Thank you for your assistance,
claude

Claude,

As far as I know, Clevite doesn't make pistons,........Mahle does and they are part of the conglomerate that owns both companies. Clevite makes engine bearings.
