Hello , I asked the following question over on the Jalopy Journal and they suggested this may be the place to find the answer .... great site I cruised around while I was on " probation " ....
My question is ......
I am rebuilding a 51 8BA flathead for my A and have heard and read threads here that I should replace the stock pistons [ I need to bore 30 over anyway ] with Hypereutectic pistons . This is my first experience with a flat 8
Maybe I am searching the web wrong but am have trouble finding a source for what I need .
Does any one know a source for a standard bore 3.1875 + .030 piston and maybe moly rings to go with it ? Of course I would need all related bearings / gaskets that go with a rebuild and would prefer to get it all at one place
Thanks Oldog
