Hi Lionel,

When the time comes, one source of pistons is JP Pistons in Adelaide. If not in their catalogue they can do one-off small production runs. They may also be able to match pistons based on your dimensions if not listed as REO pistons. See their website.

As mentioned however there is a good possibility you can find NOS ones from one of the many people engaged in vintage parts here or overseas. Just requires a bit of detective work to find what is out there and what is used in other engines if there is any commonality.

Good luck with your project.

Cheers,
