Seems to me I bought a piston/cylinder set from AA performance a few years ago that was advertised as "Euro high" compression 8.6:1 for the 90mm x 66mm W series engine. Now listed as d/c on AA website. Does anyone make those anymore ?

Hi, I have also been looking for a set of the high-compression (domed top) pistons. I contacted Pelican Parts, and they gave me a price on some Porsche OEM pistons and cylinders for around $350 each (total of around $1,250). However, they are cast iron only so no Biral or aluminum for that price.

New set of NPR 90's domed pistons & cylinders (Made in Japan) on theSamba.com under Type 2 68-79 for $275. Better get them quick. Very hard to find.

yes - they come & go in the market - not a helluva demand for the "euro" P&C set anymore to entice Mahle to mfgr
i built several 914-2.0's with 'em yrs ago - add a webcam #73 & overbore throttle body (Ed Mazula) & you will be amazed - maybe even outrun a stock -6-
