Default Piston and liner job

Proper set of liners one split on a cf85 tipper and I'm fitting the newer type liners with the anti carbon ring at the top and the newer type Pistons

I took it apart 3 weeks ago lol they was on the verge of not having it fixed. It dropped a valve so the head one piston and one liner are fucked. But the liners are different now they have a separate ring at the top to stop carbon build up. So 6 liners and Pistons. Also there was odd bits of metal in the sump which turned out to be the compressor main bearing so needs a compressor as well. So all in all its about a 17 grand job and the truck is a 57 reg. Will take 3 days to do
