Default Wanted S8 / S6 40V Pistons

After having collected the rather poorly engine from Ranj, I'm looking for 1, possible 2 pistons from a 40V S6 or S8 engine (they're the same).

If anyone has one in pieces which isn't going back together... please let me know.

I'd consider a full block also.

Thanks

MG

Thanks for that.

Also, there's 2 different pistons in the 40v as they're specific to each bank. From memory, I think you need bank 2 pistons (cylinders 5 to 8)?

No problem

Yes I'd figured out due to the offset design but thanks for confirming it for me.
