Hello
I did post on the blog a few weeks ago about my pistons....
is cheaper to get them made that buy them .... a odd situation indeed.

Hi Marc
We have your piston sample. We have supplied 5 sets of custom pistons for this engine in the past, 2 sets made at JE and 3 sets at CP. The dome on the CLS factory piston is a cast dome, i.e. not machined. The factory dome can not be accurately copied as the dome casting is not accurate and the cutters would have to be made to the dome contours. Below is a CAD model of the CP piston we have previously supplied. This piston can supplied for 90mm bore and have also supplied for 89.75mm bore
These pistons are £8xx + VAT with pins, locks and rings per 6cyl set. Lead time in manufacture at JE is 4 weeks, CP is 6 weeks. Skirt coating adds 1 week to the lead time.
If required add £1xx + VAT per 6cyl for skirt coating.
these are the pistons when they came
you can see the black coating on the skirt - these reduce any noise sound when cold, as forged have bigger clearance as they expand more when hot ( or so i have been told)
So you can get any size you wish......
hope it helps
Marc
