Folks just talked to Al B and he now has the new run of 175 pistons for the 72-76 cylinders. He has them in 64 , 64.5 ,64.75 , 65 , and 65.5 mm. They use 2 of the new style thin rings. He also said that the new MZb 12v ignitions with lighting are available for all the Pentons . He should have New run Preston Petty headlight Number plates in stock with in a month. Someone got the rights and made the molds to reproduce them.
Lots of good news for the group this week.

Thanks John for the heads up on the Jack Pimer pistons, I've been waiting for a long time for them.

John,
Could you let us know the cost of these tall pistons?
I currently have my 175 motor apart and would be interested in one.

Sorry to be so long in answering Adrian.
Al has the new run 175 tall pistons for $145. I think thats rings and wristpin also.
The min order was 100 pistons when i checked 2 years ago and they charge a lot to make them even then.
