I have a set of Diamond Racing pistons 2.5 L. Stock bore. Total Seal rings and upgraded wrist pins. What are they worth and how much should I be able to get? I have been trying to sell them but no body ever comes up with the money. Lots of people interested but no one pays up. So what is a number that people will actually pay up on?

They are worth less then retail.
Also you have to figure very few people that are actually doing more then a simple engine rebuild are going to stick with a 2.5L Most will go with a 3L
So that drives demand lower.

I may be interested IF they are low compression and you can verify it.

I believe Smokeshow has a receipt that shows the compression.. If you go to www.svtperformance.com and check the SVT Contour section, he had them for sale with a receipt showing the info.. Oh hell, I'll check  Mark
