Good day Guys,

Is there another source for super squish pistons around since John Connely ( vwparts.aircooled.net ) is no longer in business.

I wish I had an answer for you.
There are many ACN parts I would like to find.
Maybe contact Wiseco and see if they have any clues.
At $800.00 a set I can’t imagine a bunch being sold.

Were they a special order product, or did John have inventory?

Run flat tops with a modern chamber head, like CB CNC versions.

My last engine used the super squish pistons…beautiful pistons but what a pain in the ass to setup
