The pistons are for an 82mm bore.  Each piston weighs 380 grams.  I also
got lightened pins at the same time, but I don't remember the exact weight
of those.  Some other miscelaneous bits of info:

Top Ring:  1.5mm
2nd Ring:  1.5mm
Oil Ring:  4.0mm

Pin Dia:          .866in
Pin Length:      2.500in
Wire Locks:       .063in
Inv. Dome depth:  .475in

The cost breakdown is as follows:
                         Ea.    Total
Wire Lock Chrome Si.    1.50     15.00
JE Premium Pin          22.50   112.50
Ring Set(Total Seal)    94.93    94.93
Pin Fitting              4.75    23.75
Pistons                100.00   500.00
                                ------
Total                           746.18
+shipping               10.27    10.27
                                ------
Grand Total:                    756.45 


If it is any help, the Job # of this was 193763.  They should be able to
pull up the specs from that number...
