thanks for the compliment guys

D,
Will be a while before i come across some tomei 79mm pistons to build up the spare a15.
What other options could i use for 79mm cast pistons for a15? Prefarably with "valves cuts" on their tops.Perhaps something that won't need changing the rods.
And where can i get a-series work done in melb?id prefer guys who have dealt with a-series engines. i.e boring etc
Also where can i source 40intake and 33exhaust valves locally?any cheap way to do so?

Cheers

Justy swap is the old-time swap. It uses stock rods. The problem is they are expensive new. If you can find two sets of used justy pistons, it might be cheap

BNB Engines in Westall road has a guy in there that has built A series race engines.
They did a nice job on a re-sleave and full re-machine/balance on mine
