I would use extreme caution dealing with norvil , especially buying pistons he's not unknown to send out the wrong type/size/mismatched pistons.
Then he will blame you for not fitting them properly and if you try to send them back he will claim his "piston man" is on holiday and unable to check the size/type of piston etc etc etc etc .
Funnily enough he sells pistons on eBay that are almost as bad as yours !!
Not something I want to hear!!!
My only low-ish cost option, if I want to keep the 920 barrels, is getting +20 oversize from Norvil. I'm unaware of anybody else selling these?
I might end up dealing with Pete Lovell and I'll ask him to supply the pistons & rings + rebore & match them up.
I could change it back to a STD 850 BUT because the concords have been machined to accept the larger gudgeon pin I would have to get the complete engine stripped, remove the conrods and replace with standard BUT if I was going down that far I'd look at other alternatives Jim S. etc.
