Actually, I explained that before. The 944 block is Alusil, an aluminum/silica alloy and the pistons must be coated with an iron oxide coating. Nobody is making them. There is rumor that a manufacturer is thinking of making them available again, but that was 6 months ago and I've seen nothing else yet.Originally posted by Bill Miller:
George,
I don't understand the .040 over pistons being NLA. Can't you get ones from Weisco or JE (or any of the other custom piston vendors)?
At the moment, they truly are NLA.
