Interesting. I am just going by what the email said so maybe he did not look up the ATK specific piston. You wouldnt happen to have the part number? The piston in the pic sure looks like the old design.

I do have one of the cp 98mm pistons I need made . I think I would pretty much have to send it to CP to have them copy it and create an actual part number . My only issue is with the horror stories I get from Tim I am afraid they would lose it .

no, i don't have wiseco's part no# handy. i do know its stamped on the top of the piston. pistons still in my quad though... and it didn't come with a sleeve. if your looking for over sized pistons YOU will probably need to source those too.

I think whats going to happen is Im going to split fund an order with Tim and we are going to get and actual part number on a standard 98mm stock stroke 13/1 piston design instead of everyone being custom made for every stroke ,bore and compresion ratio which causes all the confusion and jacks prices up.

when venolia sent the piston back they included a ring set that they had custom made by a company in arizona.I am not sure of the name but they apparently make custom ring sets for nascar engines ,funny cars ect,have not had a issue with this set up,in fact american dirt bike .com sells these kits for rotax engines but he charges more then me contacting the companies direct.

So i looked at the web site since they have your piston on file, looks cheaper for it not being a one off piston
