78 R100RS pistons
Hey,Dap would you have the numbers that are stamped on you piston crowns?It was suggested that 78 RS pistons are unique but my parts book shows 2 different ones and I don't know whether they are compatible.My serial #61827XX indicates a build date of 08/77.My left piston is stamped 93 96 I6 but my right one cannot be read because my(errant) exhaust valve "removed" it!I bought a used replacement stamped 93 97 H6 that the parts guy said was correct but I am sceptical.Any thoughts?Also, in your main seal replacement,was it a teflon seal?I have heard of them but I don't know if they are OEM replacements or special order.
