They are only sold as piston and cylinder new. Lots of used ones for sale in the classified.

What size and version are you looking for?

Oh yes.

JE & CP are fine for competition engines where pistons are replaced every 50-200 hours (depending on CR and max RPM's).

Jerry, call me.

high compression 2.0 pistons

I am looking for some good race pistons for 2.0 build. When mocking up the ones I have. We are only able to reach 10/1. I am looking for something to get me to 11.5/1.
What is a good source, or does someone possibly have something?

thanks
Scott
