Doesn't surprise me. Have a word with Marcus (Rally205). He was looking at forged internals, and may be able to point you in the right direction.

Pistons aside, how's the rest of it coming together then Kev?

You monkeys.

Google search "6A13 forged Pistons" - This was the first result I found ;)

http://www.rpw.com.au/Products/Engine%20Components/pistsons.htm

RPW is a very, very trustworthy company, and they know their stuff when it comes to the mitsi engines.

Bit harsh !

Plus the fact Kev is in the UK, so I'm sure he would like try and source someone here before considering the likes of Australia, but I'm sure he will aprreciate your efforts

I was just getting smart :D

They have dealers in the USA, probably pay to get in touch with them anyway.

Kevin, in your opinion, what are the weak points of a 6a13tt as you approach 500hp?
