well the sp0.05 means its oversized so been bored but i thought they were standard...wheres the best place 2 get pistons n what ratio do u reccomend?

im wanting them with the vavle cut outs.....

heard a1 rallyesport r supposed 2 b quite cheap?


is the only other way u can tell if they r low comp by measuring from the grudgeon pin 2 the top of the crown?

Bit difficult to tell on this picture but you can just see that they are dished a lot more than the ones in your pictures. These were machined to 7.5:1 to match in with the combustion chamber volume in the head and also the fact that the block was decked.
