Thanks for this info. Spoke with Ian at avonbar recently and he said he could only get hold of 1380 in 18cc. Maybe he just has some old stock?

What are people now using as an alternative? Any other 1380 Pistons that can bring the comp down low enough.

Cheers

Could only get hold of 1380? Isn't that 73.5mm anyway?

Yeah that was what I ment should have made muself more clear lol. But okay no worries, thanks for your help. I have pinged Ian a message to see what he can cook up for me. May have to be the 11cc cast Pistons machined to a slightly bigger dish.

My money says Ian can't fulfil those orders unless he's got them on the shelf (which I doubt).

If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of.

Yeah please do let me know if you have any feedback. I've also sent a message via the website. If anybody else knows of anyone selling +20 or +40 forged omegas with 18cc an dish then please let me know. If anybody has any stashed away for a project that may not happen then I'd be willing to buy them from you :)

I think the 73.5 pistons with an 18cc dish is a goer for all three of us :)

We just need to source some now :)

Anybody else interested in a set?

Sorry guys decided to go for the +020 18 cc dish from MED and have the required valve cut outs machined in.
