Hi Guys! I haven't seen any talk about them here, but I can get the new K&B 7.5 Piston&sleeve made by Nelson for $75 each.......... just thought I'd mention it.

Hi Fool

Do these fit the newer Pro motors? & what makes them better than the K&B ones?

GT.....

These are for "stock" 7.5 inboard and outboard, not PRO. K&B is producing PRO piston&sleeve sets, and I'm pretty sure I can get those too.......But according to what I've been told, K&B is not currently producing P&S sets for "stock" 7.5, and may not for a while yet.

If someone has better information about this, Most of us would like to hear about when K&B will start producing these again. I'm told by a K&B dealer, who has been in the business longer than most, that these are better quality overall. what's best about them is that they are available NOW! When you can find them, NOS K&B sets go for over $60...... And, this is just a guess, I doubt that when K&B starts producing them again they will sell old price....

I only started this string to let it be known these parts are available. If someone has more and better info than I do, I'm sure everyone would like to hear it. I will try to get some kind of technical info to post..thats all for now.

Hi Fool

I'm glad that someone is making them for the 'stock' motors - the WC motors really are good solid reliable motors. I was more wondering if he had bumped the timing or put his own tweak in to the porting. His gear is really 1st class.

I don't know which Nelson version you have,but the ones I run are not even close to the stock K&B porting. This has been my secret weapon in 7.5 tunnel for many years. The huge ports really let the motor breathe and HP and RPMs go through the roof!
