Hey Tim. Thats a fair price. Mine are +1's, Apparently, Burton had batch made up and they all went. How many sets do you need to have made?

Sorry to be a pooper, but what's better about the Cosworth pistons that one made by, for example JE or Ross?

Mine were about £500-550 from memory, which isn't that cheap anyway.

Rick, my block is pretty special so I would have to modify the new block too. Not a bad thing I suppose.

My Cosworth forged pistons were around the £500-550 mark when I bought them.
