Re: Porsche 2.7 JE pistons

Not JE but just as good are CP pistons which is part of Carrillo in the US. Performance Unlimited in Yorkshire are the agent. Purchased two lots of pistons and rods from them. Easy to deal with.

Perhaps it is the water in Norfolk or the beer? Great write up Sladey particularly the GT4 v Early 911 compar...
