Serge:
Do you have any more info on the pistons from Richard? Are these flat top, low compression, pistons? Or has Richard have a new batch of high compression pistons made? (recognisable by the protrusion on top of the pistons, to raise the compression ratio).

skippopotamus:
Hey Serge, first thank you for making all the great videos.  I refer to them all the time.
The pistons are high compression and come with prefit rings.  The liners are just liners but they have a nice sharp edge where they seal.

skippopotamus:
Dakazman, the liners are sealed with paper seals and the different colors on the seals refer to how thick they are which decides how much they protrude out of the top of the block.  They need to protrude a little so the head will clamp them down.
