Does anyone know of anyone that has got 3 or more Dome head Ford brand 3 1/16 +005 pistons to sell. (1937 engine)
Thing is that the set I got many years ago appeared to have 3 pistons that were no good, and I had a hard time to find the right rings for the set. But I finally found them so I really don't want to switch to another brand or a bigger O.S.

Terry thanks for the tip. Nothing on his web catalog so I passed him a Q.
Sorry fordyford, I wasn't specific enough, mine are 3-ring aluminum so that's what Im looking for.
And Ggmac Im standing by hoping for something positiv.
 
Would you recommend using other old brands of pistons, like Mc Kay Norris or Toledo:I guess they are as good as Ford but I don't any experience of them.

While I wouldn't go so far as recommending it, I can't see the harm if the weights are substantially the same and they had the same head configuration (domed vs. flat top).

As a matter of fact, I remember doing it years ago when I scored a new set of seven pistons for an 8BA. I went to the local junkyard and went through their "piston pile" and found one that was the right size. Back then, I didn't even worry about the weight. The engine ran fine until I finally sold the car.
 
I found a set of seven , Mcquay norris , 3 ring aluminum flat tops . With pins . These have the expansion slot .
