    I will have to keep digging for a piston. If i had a template or dimensions I can cut this one down i am about to receive. I would like to have the correct piston.

    The case is probably ok to use, but a replacement water pump shaft and kickstarter pawl and spring would be a must.

    Piston measurements of my original Mahle 66.50 piston are as follows,
    Measurement A 49mm
    Measurement B 64mm
    Width of opening 22mm
    Height of opening 19mm

    I didn't modify the skirt length, just made the cutout deeper, I like the idea of a longer skirt keeping things square.
