97mm flat top group buy?

All,

This should perhaps be in the marketplace, but well, here goes:
Lancer can have pistons made at Wiseco, and the 97mm flat top is out of stock.
He will run another series If we can collectively gather an order of 8 pistons.

The flat top piston raises the compression ratio to 10.5:1, and it also creates a small squish area, which will increase turbulence for better combustion, apart from boosting the displacement to nearly 700cc.
"There is no replacement for displacement"
I will take 2, any one else in for the big group buy of 2023?

Cheers, Finn Hammer

I will take 1 provided the price is reasonable.  Any idea how much Lancer will be asking for the 97mm FT?

DBM,

No, havent asked Lancer about this yet, except he said he would run the order if 8 preorders were made, earlier in this thread.
I said take 2 to get the deal going, but probably, as Lancer wrote, the market is saturated already. It is a pity, but worse things have happened.

Cheers, Finn Hammer

Do you know if Lancer intends to continue with the 94mm flat-top?

It would appear so:

But a PM would seem to be in order.

Dang, the 94mm is $259.  So a 97mm must be about $267.27.

I intend to keep the price at $229 (94 & 97mm) for everyone here on this forum, as long as Wiseco doesn’t jack up their cost of production.
The $259 price mentioned above is for pistons I offer for sale on eBay, and it’s ebays seller fees of 10%+ that adds the additional $30 to the cost.

I intend to continue to sell the 94mm pistons.
I am willing to have 97’s produced if enough folks want them and as long as I can be assured of covering the cost of production at the time I place the production order.
