pistons for a 50 horse outboard.

[rolmops]

On my search for better prices,I came upon an ebay store called TRI-STATE MARINE.Their price for a piston with rings is $45 which is half to one third of what everybody else asks.It is very tempting and at the same time it seems iffy.Does anybody have any experience with these people?<br />If you do, can you tell what brand of pistons they sell?<br />Thank you.

Didn't you ask them what brand they were?<br /><br />Do they come with rings? Wrist pins?<br /><br />We assume youre talking about an Evin/John since youre here but what year is the powerhead?

rolmops, never heard of tri-state marine, whats the brand name of the pistons. That should say alot about them, some times we all have close out items at cost or below. We use wisco, as we think that other than OEM. they are the most piston for the money---Bob
