I am in need of 4 pistons and probably 4 liners from the 1.8 K series engine (its a 51 MY car if that helps)

Anyone got a set they want to get rid of? :)

I have a set of 3 pistons and 3 liners, if that's any good to you.


BTW Don't ask the obvious question.

I'm going to ask the obvious question anyway... How much for the three pistons? :p

That wasn't the obvious question that I was thinking of...

The pistons/liners that we have got are made by Federal Mogul and are labelled as 3.1496"/80.000mm. I'll have to have a think about how much I want for them. I've no idea how much we paid.

BTW the pistons come without the con rod, unlike the MG Rover part.

I assume I can remove the grudgeon pin from the current pistons and reuse the conrod from there :)

Ideally I need four... however it is only three pistons that are cracked so could "get away" with the three :) - at least to get the 45 back on the road anyway!

How does £60 per piston/liner sound?

How does £60 per piston/liner sound?

Is that £60 per piston AND liner.... or £60 per piston and then an extra £60 per liner? - Does it include Rings?

If its the former then we're talking £180 for three?

In which case I might get one of the sets of Four pistons + four liners + grudgeon pins and piston rings for £190 off ebay!!

Okay, I was basing the price on the MG Rover part prices. Having now looked on fleabay, I'll adjust my price slightly. How about £150 for the 3 pistons & liners. The pistons come with the rings already fitted and the gudgeon pins.
