Looks like I'm buying a built engine so I'm selling these. Cypher said they are actually 82.06mm, which is supposed to make up for honing the cylinder. They are stamped 82mm. I bought them from Cypher about a month ago. Complete with wrist pins, and Totalseal piston rings (they look awesome). These are flawless, new in the box. One piston may have some oil on it as I used it to test fit one of the rings in the cylinder. Also one of the top rings is about half gapped, (not gapped to spec, it has a smaller gap which will need to be enlarged, just like all the other top rings), as I was making sure I could do these with my DIY gapping tool. This changes nothing, as you will have to either gap the rings or have them gapped by a machine shop.
Pics will follow.
BTW the guys at totalseal recommend doing a finishing hone on our cylinders at 280 grit for the best seating of the rings, and then hitting it with a plateau brush for a few strokes.
Paid $400 plus shipping, asking $390 plus shipping. Took $10 off because I'm in Canada and shipping might be more.
edit: These are 8.5:1 low compression pistons.
