New Shortblock ordered
Hey all Finally ordered the kit to get the Z charging again. Stage 2 Shortblock from Z1 and a number of other bits and pieces. Thanks for all the help and advice so far and sorry about the dumb questions! Although Im afraid they wont be the last. So engine is out and Im getting the front end tidied up (was a bit bent) and engine bay re-spary et while its in bits. The heads are good so Ive got some ti valve fasteners and thats all for the heads. The one bore and one piston were toast so Ive ordered the S2 shortblock. The garage has sent the tubs back to Paul to get them fixed up. I thought while its all in pieces to get a new transmission mount and a one piece driveshaft, profec II and a couple of suspension bits sorted as well. Fingers crossed it wont all take too long to sort out! I bought this car in April and Ive driven it about 200 Miles! Dont even want to talk about how much its cost so far. Hopefully it will be a bit of a beast once its all fixed though! Positive vibes welcomed!

Stock forged pistons - Where to buy?
Hi guys Rebuild time, the car is goosed. One of the pistons decided to part company with the rod and has trashed the bore. The garage are buying a used block but I was trying to safe some cash by sourcing pistons myself. Anyone know where I can get some forged standard sized pistons? I dont want to have the bores enlarged as this will mean more cash. Many Thanks
