its a bit cheaper than im paying for them from Ken, but i must admit that is because i buy the bigger 73 and 73.5mm pistons and rings so i would say its still a good deal.

Yes that is cheap, I was quoted $250 a while back.

As said 73.0mm ones (1360cc) are dearer (around $270-290), but Ken Nelson and Graham Russell do have them.

Don't forget to add the postage... :lol:

Gday guys - was about to ask what kind of quality they were(hypertecs). Well I have bought one of the 2 sets of "Buy It Now" 30 thou over pistons. I was looking for 20 thou but 30 wont be too bad - still gives me 2 x overbores...

Just have to get this motor together now when the slugs arrive and hand them over to QIM for the final bore and hone...

Hooroo for now

hypatecs are good pistons, have had no problems with the 11 sets i have used in the past for customers.
It will give you more than 2 oversize bores you have atleast 4 over sizes you can do.
I just wish i had the extra money to stock up on them now but cant leave money sitting on the shelf for too long.
