Internal Engine Parts

[Arch 93]

It's engine re-build time and my 100-4 is in need of new internal organs, like pistons and a few other items. I'd appreciate recommendations on suppliers. I'm familiar with most of the companies that sell parts for British cars, but are there any whose products are superior to others. Since these items are vital organs, I want to get the highest quality that I can.
Thanks.

We had pistons made for our '56 100 LeMans vintage race car. But we do have brand new ARP rod and piston pinch bolts and a unturned stock Crank with perfect bearing surfaces. PM me if you have interest. Thanks

Try Healey SURGEONS

Email Steve at topend@racetep.com he has JE pistons for 4 cyl and 6 cyl Healeys. He has other parts also. Good Luck

I've heard that a lot of the parts for Healeys are produced in China and the quality is not as good as the original parts. Assuming this is correct,would you say that JE pistons are superior to the pthers?

I haven't seen any Chinese pistons. The last set from Moss said made in India I believe. I see UK sets also. JE and Wiesco are superior, but it is hard to tell a customer he needs $850 pistons , when Moss has them for $360.
