Dome head 3 1/16 +005 anyone

[oll37]

Does anyone know of anyone that has got 3 or more Dome head Ford brand 3 1/16 +005 pistons to sell. (1937 engine)
Thing is that the set I got many years ago appeared to have 3 pistons that were no good, and I had a hard time to find the right rings for the set. But I finally found them so I really don't want to switch to another brand or a bigger O.S.

Would you recommend using other old brands of pistons, like Mc Kay Norris or Toledo:I guess they are as good as Ford but I don't any experience of them.

While I wouldn't go so far as recommending it, I can't see the harm if the weights are substantially the same and they had the same head configuration (domed vs. flat top).

As a matter of fact, I remember doing it years ago when I scored a new set of seven pistons for an 8BA. I went to the local junkyard and went through their "piston pile" and found one that was the right size. Back then, I didn't even worry about the weight. The engine ran fine until I finally sold the car.

I found a set of seven , Mcquay norris , 3 ring aluminum flat tops . With pins . These have the expansion slot .

Ggmac thanks again but I "chicken out" on mixing brands for now.
