Mick What was it about them that makes you say they werent that good. I am not pro-Wiseco at all, I m just interested to hear your experience.  The only forged slugs I  have used are Cosworth, but I now have a mortgage wich won't let me buy such extravagant gear   ----- Original Message ----- From: Mick Ralph To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, July 29, 2000 3:33 PM Subject: Re: MAHLE pistons unavailable Brad I used to use Wiseco in racing motorbike engines years ago and i gotta say that they really were not that good - the major advantage being that they used really thin (1mm) rings so they let the two stroke motors rev really well... Are they any good? What sort of price can u expect to pay? Availability?
