Hey Guys,

I need some help identifying a Lambretta piston, please see the pictures below:

hoping to find some rings as the bore looks ok and I think I can get away with just a quick clean up of the piston skirt.


Thanks,

Tim

Hepolite I think.

The logo on the inside appears to be an entwined "A" and an "E" which stands for Associated Engineering.

I might have a set of rings out in the shed- will check when I get back from work

just checked with a genuine Hepolite piston I've got, and its NOT the same make- sorry.

Also, no 66.8 rings either (got loads of 66.4 if any good)

Thanks anyway Chris!

To me the marking looks more like a V and S or I guess a A and S when upside down like in the photo I posted.
