thanks for the info noh20 - i figured there must be a reason that i hadn't seen them in turbo spec motors.

Thanks also wally, ive been on the aa website but they dont seem to list those pistons anymore? maybe a temporary thing. i have 8 2.0ltr barrells to chose from so im sure i must have some half decent ones i could have re-honed. I also read about people struggling to get the mahle 94mm pistons and theyre going up in price.
building a motor seems to be bit of minefield tbh and costs can easliy spiral out of control. especially once you look at issues others have had and how they over come them (treating springs and lifters fo example)

After a bit more research i think this is a more likely spec

CU Case acid cleaned and machined for porsche fan
Crank, pulley and kennedy 915 conversion flywheel dynamically balanced
H Beam rods
94mm forged pistons and OG barrels (JE pistons look sweet but mega cash)
stock cam and crank gear
webcam 119
stock lifters
1700 rockers
44 x 38 square port heads with 1 piece stainless steel valves, hd single valve springs, cromoly retainers, hardened valve collets,
8:1 cr
Dry sump kit
CSP python exhaust w/custom muffler
