Tom,

Just FYI, we sell these as well for much less.  If you want I can give
you a quote on an engine rebuilt kit.  The 96mm piston set I can do for
$299 for Vanagon list members.  Just let me know.

PS, I will gladly give anyone who buys engine rebuild parts from me
customer support.  I love how they sell a kit and then calmly state that
they will give no technical support with it whatsoever.  The customer
support is what you really need when you are doing a job like this.

Thanks,
Ken Wilford
