Turbo piston kit 1135cc +

As per title, I'm after a full set of pistons for the Saxon engine.

Due to the ever decreasing demand for old skool stuff, all the major performance piston manufacturers no longer make them or plan to make any more.

After a 2 month wait from MTC, I finally received my 74mm pistons only to find that they've been machined incorrectly.
So the Saxon still remains lifeless with no real solution to getting it back on the road!:bawl

All I can now do is trawl eBay and forums..... I would imagine getting some made will cost me three arms and both legs!
I will consider anything from 1135cc upwards as long as they are forged low compression (flat top) pistons.

Thanks, Will

Why not go down to 1075 .
A 60cc drop won't make much difference and they are readily available from Hoopers etc.
