Hi all, ive just bought some county pistons. Wondering if anyone has experience with them.
The reviews ive found are mainly is the states and stack up quite well. Theyre basically remakes of ae pistons.
The set I have are cp275 1275+.06c.
Thanks
Dale

Mini Mania has them listed as The "County Brand" of pistons are a high quality copy of AE piston made to the same specifications and in fact use the same rings, etc.  Made in Taiwan.http://www.minimania...iston_Fact_File

I've just had my 998 block bored to match some county pistons, my old man said he's never had any issues with them. Only time will tell.

I've just had these fitted in my rebuild. Engine builder says he's fitted loads for the mg boys and never known them to cause a problem.
