Keith, I had my 1940 Chev engine re-bored and fitted with new pistons 4 days before we headed off on "Back to the Track" in July 1995. The engine re-builder (I can't remember his name at the moment), was in The Basin and he was the only place where I could obtain pistons in a hurry and get it re-bored to suit. The pistons he used where certainly Chev 216 pistons and they were cast iron and flat topped as well. They lasted well and are still in that engine although I have a 235 in the Chev nowdays.
Regards Rick.
