Hi, I sent a new J7R liner to Westwood Cylinder Liners Ltd to get prices for a set in ductile iron, which they claim to be 3 x stronger than traditional iron spun liners......."Westwood now produce and supply cylinder liners in Ductile Cast Iron. Ductile Iron generally offers three times the tensile strength of normal spun cast iron. This means it is very suitable for high performance engines."
A one off set is circe ?400 retail, however if there was a group buy of ten sets the price would be ?50-?50 each. Also liner one & four would not have the outside edge machined for further strength.
Thought I'd post this for general info.
Cheers, John
PS. I have no "interest" or involvement with this company, but am considering buying a set as they look good value compared to some of the french ductile iron liner offerings.
