I called Wiseco when I started my S3 project 2 years ago was told there are no pistons available for the S3.

Custom build, 12 piston minimum. I'm sure those that need to know the details already know the details, they are not "cheap".

Wössner has an advantage with the value of the dollar right now......

I found my contact at Wiseco is no longer there, after a couple of decades, personal tragedy reared its ugly head.....

:(

Custom Wiseco pistons, 12 piece minimum, 6 to 8 weeks to build. Pistons ballpark about $180 to 200 each. Included rings, wrist pin and c-clips.

:think:

Not mentioned when I called, Wiseco could bring the price down a bit 180-200 :roll: too much for my nickle and dime budget and I bet there are many more like me can't just drop 6 bills for three pistons,,,

Where are the Wossner Pistons listed on your website I cannot find them. How much USD? and shipping? I have 2 sets of .020 over NOS Pistons I could sell if I knew how much for your Wossners.

I am now stocking KH400/S3 Wossner pistons. Available in .50mm, 1mm and 1.5mm. My website will be updated soon. If you need some before then give me a shout.

My Site has not yet been updated. As stated in my earlier post, " If you need some before then give me a shout." I can be contacted through my website.

As I am in the UK I do not sell in USD.
Price is 305.00 GBP + around 12.00 GBP shipping
The pistons have been quite popular over here, I have sold quite a few sets. At the moment I only have +0.5mm and +1mm in stock.

I wish I had a nickle for every time I wrote off inventory and then someone wanted it.

It's a strange world.....
