Default Focus 2ltr forged pistons/rods

Afternoon

I'm going to build a 2ltr zetec turbo lump I'm looking to forge it for reliability and so I can run big power.

I'm starting to get parts together and I've looked for forged pistons and rods but I can only find American items, anybody recommend and sites/company's?

Thanks

Andrew

PEC for packages over here, or williams for rods alone. i'm also having some rods made at the moment, they'll be available in a month or so.

the american items are fine if you''re happy with the c/r. they're the same rod length and pin size as an st170.

where abouts in suffolk are you?

I have seen the PEC packages they seem good price wise I'm just weighing up my future options.

I'm actually in Norfolk now just bought a house in Gorlston but I used to live in Lowestoft how about yourself?

I'm closer to Newmarket/Ely. PEC are cheap for some parts, but expensive for others. think the piston and rod packages are a fair price though.
