Is there anywhere to purchase a single 93mm cylinder and piston for a 1.8? I found lots of "sets", but I only need one, not four.

I am not a professional engine builder, but have built many air and water cooled engines in my 50+ years in the game. I would advise against finding 1 cylinder/piston. The economy saved at the start will be lost in the end. A set of new matching P & C's is not that expensive and the value gained is great.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) its a real gamble that also IMO isn't worth it , it will only end in disappointment.
