I had an email from Rob last night & they are getting close. Judging from his previous jobs & the manufacturer used these will be an excellent product. I have already put my order in for a couple of sets.
Regards,
Michael

I see there are Omega pistons on eBay, are these the items you were working on? If so can you give me the weight on the 1.0mm oversize?

I believe they are similar in price to the Beet 3mm kit and cheaper than the custom pistons my buddies racing VFR's are having built. I thought the price was OK when I saw it. I'm curious if he can do a 2mm over? :)

OK, after a couple of drinks i thought after my statement I should really check, they are slightly more expensive than the alternative +1mm pistons, so certainly an alternative, but I shant be rushing to replace mine. I await reports from users with interest :smt001
