either ian howell or talk to PEC, states are cheaper, but i had a five week wait for mine to be made and shipped. you can get standard ones shipped much quicker though.
must be money burning a hole in your pocket lol!

You wanna get a rod and piston package if funds allow from Ian

After all he is the daddy zetec turbo builder

Long rods with a short piston makes for a much nicer rev

You could go else where but he knows exactly what to get and supply

Bit like jg yb engines lol

RS-Rikki

Jano gets a good deal

buy 2nd hand new ones to the spec u want ;0) cheaper than new, mor money to spend elsewhere!. thers a few people selling zetec turbo pars on here maybe worth goin thru their threads!

v man

Personally I'd go to Ian for a short motor build as it will have warranty and you know it's a bad ass build
You may well need machine work to accommodate the said pistons anyway

cheers for the help lads!!

Ian gets his stuff from the states though, so would still need to wait.

v man

But sometimes he does stock bits as I think he gets the deals if he buys a few sets at a time
And that way he saves on the delivery

best to talk to ian, otherwise there are some rods and pistons in the for sale section. someone unloading loads of their gear at reasonable prices.

I run CP pistons and Eagle rods, what power you going for?

End of day the most important factor is a proper assembled engine, balanced and the best tune possible.

PEC package would be more than suitable if the above is right.

You're talking to a man from Blackpool!! You've more chance of getting them to stop tampering with donkeys than getting some one else to build an engine for them, unless it's for free!

getting them from the states won't take long, i only had to wait five to six weeks due to them being 86mm and had the rings a little further down from the crown.
