Default cosworth forged racing pistons HELP

Does anyone know who can get hold of these for me as cosworth are a right f**ker to get hold of at the moment?

Be careful if u get hold of a set tho as there's loads of new sets floating around which run 1mm rings and the rings are no longer available!

Right. Just had the bores measured and also checked with Jason elvy who I bought the block from and the bores are on a 91.275. I've been told that I need to go for a set of cosworth forged on a 91.5 and these measure at 91.3 there would just need to get bored done slightly and they would fit?

Anyone got any pistons suitable used / on the shelf?

Burtons are proper dear!
