Mi16 Pistons

Recommended Posts

Guest WillN

I know this subject has been covered loads in the past, but I just wondered if anyone has come across a supplier of standard 1.9 mi16 pistons and liners recently. I'm doing a full rebuild at the moment and wanted to change them, (didn't even think about the possibilty of them not being made anymore :P )

 

I've found Accralite but I'm not paying £160 a piston. Don't need them to be forged as the engine's being kept pretty much standard....

Try the forum sponser QEP & see if he has any stock but iirc they have stopped making them.

 

Pumaracing did also say he could still get them near the end of last year I think.

I bought brand new Mahle liners half a year ago...

 

And they could supply the pistons as well,

New Mi16 Pistons are like Rocking horse Poo.

 

I did have some a couple of years ago (old stock from france) but they've all gone now.

 

Liners are available though and I can do very good prices on forged pistons.

 

I've got 5 sets of 84mm Wiseco's with bored liners and several sets of 83.5mm IAPEL pistons ( very large valve cutouts and high crowns) with new 83.5mm liners.

 

Pm me or call me for prices 01444 243720

(much cheaper than accralites :) )

Nothing major, a bit of pitting. Suppose I could just do the liners but as I've got it apart.......
