Hi Jim,

Check on E-Bay periodically. They do show up there. Tonight there is only one standard size one available at less than $50. And three that are 0.030" over. A full set of six is on there too, but they far exceed your price wish.
Parts show up every day on there. Might not take long to find some. Do you want standard size or over? Maybe a member here has a lead on them.
Tom

If you find no luck here, might be worth a look over at Ford Barn. A lot of guys over there with "stashes" of parts.

I think I still have some. Are you looking for standard or oversize?

One other good trick is to get the original factory part number and google search for it. I found a set of NOS +0.030 pistons for my 215 at about a third of Egge's price. You may want to determine minimum oversize, find pistons that size or larger, then final bore for the pistons you buy.
Base part number: 7HA-6108 Suffix notes oversize: -A = std., -B = +0.0025, -C = +0.005, -D = +0.020, -E = +0.030, -F = +0.040, -G = +0.060
Base part number: 0HA-6108 Suffix notes oversize: -A = std., -B = +0.0025, -C = +0.020, -D = +0.030, -E = +0.040, -F = +0.060
