RE: Silver Swallow Pulldown
I wasn't being serious! Wood and Carbon Fibre, even HT stuff, has exactly the wrong properties to make into a piston. The engine probably has a Steel liner, only a cast iron piston would work with it 'cause they have similar expansion coefficients. There are people around eastern OZ who will make and fit a new piston and contra to your engine for a little money. PM me if you want some names.
