Default Finding DL 50 parts?

Sorry the thread should read DL 50 not DI 50
Hi, i have been given an old DL50 that needs a new top end.
Could someone help with what parts will fit this engine and where i could get them?.
Thanks, Dave.

Metallica meant v v rc, thats short for valley view rc. (USA)

You can get the parts there too, but I suggest the link I gave as it's in Australia and shipping will be more reasonable.

Hi, the cylinder bolt hole spacing is different on the DL-50 as compared to the DLE-55 . If a person has access to a milling machine or handy with a small round file that can be fixed fairly easy and the 55 cylinder and piston&ring can be used.

Any Idea on how much material to remove for a good fit?

It has been a while, but if memory serves me right it's around 1-1/2 mm smaller on the DL- 50 both ways.
