Surely that's got to be a mistake and they've sent you pistons and rods for the flat 6?
Seems daft to sell them in 6's for a 4 pot engine

You're right

Piston has a serial number on the top ending in 925 and box also has 92.5 on it. I need a micrometer. What pistons or what sized over-sized do H6's take?

They were bought as a combo with the crower rods. And then head studs as well as $99 postage. All in I think it fell in at about £750. I'll probably send the 6 to the engine builder and have him send me back the 2 not needed.

The company refused to send as gift as they are a registered company, so instead only valued the items @$100. A risk but worth it as i paid £23 import tax. PM'd you regarding who sent them.
