Pistons and Cylinders...
I found some NOS ones at home just before I moved overseas. With the amount of people rebuilding 36hp engines I dont think you will need 28!

smurfed if I know. I just pulled engines apart and put obvious crap in bin, mostly tinware. but heads with broken fins and stuff like that went straight in. Other stuff thats a bit oxidised was kept. none had any signs of VSR, an interesting concept for a previously type 4 only man. I have to admit when I was doing all this dissasembling a lot of it was done with a hammer and some with hammer + chisel 🤪 From memory, none of them had much wear about them at all. The pistons are a bit brown in spots but no scoring, no busted rings, no chewed out bearings.... they were all driven a lot easier than I drive my cars.

32 pistons was an exageration, I dont know how many I have, but I also have a few heads cranks, rods, pushrods cases probably other stuff.

I had a full NOS okrasa kit in boxes, but threw it out with the stupid hens teeth that the rocking horse shit all over.

Sorry, I dont have anything rare or valuable.
