I had Wiseco pistons made recently. Jay very generously shared his experience and information. The only difference between our purchases was that he got his pistons 0.020 over, and I got stock diameter. It was a thoroughly positive experience buying from Wiseco. I would be happy to share my purchasing information with other listers. Jay is right about valves being NLA from Renault - I have tried several times lately with Iberparts and Marchants, but the factory doesn't have them. The US supplier prices are obscene. Watch EBay.
