Default Cosworth Racing pistons?

Just been browsing e-bay for some pistons for the Zetec, seen these,





The description says;

Cosworth Racing Pistons fitted to Zetec Rods,

These pistons are suitable for Zetec 16v Turbo / ZVH conversions. Currently fitted to Ford Zetec Con-Rods, complete with ARP Bolts.

These pistons, rods & bolts have been running in a Zetec 16v Turbo engine in a Fiesta RS Turbo, with a standard Cosworth T3 turbo at up to 18psi with 100% reliability. The engine made 255bhp and 270lb ft at 14psi, and ran a 13.8 @ 107mph 1/4 mile.

The pistons are approx 85.3mm bore.

How much powere will these take? Do they look genuine to you guys?[/img]

well cossie racing pistons are one of the best choice of pistons, to actually buy em can take a while as they have a back order system for em

oh and when ya buy em new ya gotta get em achine to the comp ration ya want as they only make em 1 style for each engine choice

there also 125 quid each plus vat and ya gotta add machining costs to that too
