A set of forged pistons from any of the main suppliers, Accralite, Arias etc,

A set of steel rods from Burtons.

Make sure you get a good mapper as this will be the key to a good conversion.

Cosworth racing Pistons are very good, however if you want to buy direct from cosworth racing sales you will have to wait as they supply the F1 teams and those orders ttake priority.

The wait can be up to 12 weeks.

If you have the time then they are well worth the wait.
