Is there a value/ market for used pistons and cylinders?
Particularly 1.8 Or is it just as good to scrap them for aluminum and steel $? |

Original German cylinders are valuable and should NOT be scrapped. My old 1.8 cylinders are currently being bored to 96mm. Can’t help you on price though, sorry. |

QUOTE(sixnotfour @ Jan 19 2026, 09:11 PM) $$$ $$$ ? Did that mean scrap for money? As far as boring then it when i did my 2056 i couldn't find anyone willing to bore out cylinders. Everybody was saying it wasn't cost effective. Any markings on cylinders to show they are German ones |
