I'll have some next week! The ones that I do have have two pistons that are not acceptable in my book. Unless you want the 9.5:1 pistons and they are in excellent condition .

How much do you want for the 9.5:1 pistons? and what would those pistons do for my engine, besides changing the compression? I'm still really new to the ca18. thanks

If you are planning on putting 9.5:1 compression piston's in a stock CA18DET, you'd better think again. You are going to need standalone at the very least to pull that off. I'm gonna do it but I'm both stupid and have a very well built CA. What a bad combination...
