2.7 MAHLE piston and cylinder

Hi

I need some help please folks! my 1976 911S (2.7) started smoking the other day.

Following a low compression on jug #1 (25psi) compared to the others (165psi) a tear down of #1 has uncovered damage to the jug and piston.

Unfortunately with very limited funds (and time!) I want to resort to just replacing (or reweld and replate the damaged jug) and piston. They are a 11 fin Mahle with shiny finish so 99% cetain it is a Nikasil set.

The car is a definately no show queen and has lots of miles under it's wheels so not too precious about chucking a second hand part in to get it back on the road.

Does anyone have either a spare used piston and or jug to get me out of this deep hole!

Happy to pay and cover shipping to UK - would be a life saver

part number on parts:

piston A2

Cylinder MAHLE 90 ZN2 W5 (147) triangle with number '6' - 11 fins / Nikasil

Thanks, Jack

Hi Jack

I have a cylinder but no piston turned up yet.
It’s got a bit of bore score but I could send pics if you think it might be of use.

Regards
Mike
