Default Zetec Turbo Pistons

Where (if) can you get new calibra turbo pistons from? anyone know how much they are?

Any other budget pistons?

Is it advisable to use a 2nd hand set if they have limited wear with new rings?

Wossner forged pistons do Calibra turbo ones and Zetec turbo (Zetec E up to 1998 from Mondeo, Focus, Fiesta mk3 etc) c/r 8.5:1 difference is Calibra ones are available in slightly different bore sizes JTM can do them for £499 delivered with pins and rings which I think is cheap!

fook they look cheap? have you used these pistons? whats the score with customs tax etc??

was thinking of a real budget build but with correct comp ratio and no de-comp plate, so 500quid out of my budget. what do other peeps use apart from machining the standard zetec pistons?

Jonlem Don't ask lol

Occasionally second hand 86.5mm pistons show up. I dont think you will be able to post a wanted advert until you have 50 posts or something so just let me know if you want me to do it.
