I’ve ordered a few times from them.  The first time I sent the a piston to measure and they replicated it exactly other than bore diameter, and most recently I knew the job number for the piston order make ten years ago by the previous owner, so I just gave them that number and the 0.040” overbore size I wanted.

Some manufacturers I’d contacted required a minimum order of pistons or a certain dollar minimum.  Venolia was willing to sell me just two new pistons for a 1936 V-twin motorcycle engine for a very reasonable price.

The machinist that is working on my project GT6 was kind enough to source parts at a discount for this project and when he called Venolia about
Pistons they told him they only make them on a custom basis. The person he spoke with even asked for specs.
Is this how everyone else get’s their pistons from Venolia ? If Venolia gets to be a problem can anyone suggest a source for forged pistons ?
Thanks as always,
Jim Gray
