Ptfarmer, you are correct, certain gas ford pistons are almost impossible to source. I can get 158 gas pistons, but 175 s are tough. The engines are modular to a point sharing different bore and stroke combos for the 3 and 4 cylinders using the same basic rod except in the high horsepower turbocharged applications.
