Engine rebuild parts needed - Atmo Gordini

[Hannu]

I had a bit of a knock on the new Atmo Gordini lump we have just fitted to my classic rally Gordini, and we pulled it apart and found number 1 piston had cracked rings and was lightly damaged.

We measure the pistons at 75.89 mm diameter and I have spare pistons and liners.

I need the following parts:

Cylinder head gasget set

Fresh set of valve springs - will GT Turbo ones fit?

76.0 mm piston ring set

Sump gasget

Big end bearing set


Has anyone got any of these parts lying around, or will I need to talk to Salv Sacco?

I had a set of cam followers from him, half the price of Renault.
The engine has now been rebuilt by a pro and no problems.

Mecaparts do sell individual piston and ring sets for the atmo. Thats where mine came from.

Engine now rebuilt and running, Salv Sacco in Wolverhampton sorted the parts for me.

lucky you, he didn't want to help me out press bearings into a turbo 2 block. - although i do appreciate that supply parts is alot less labour intensive than working on these engines.....
i also heard he was retiring?
