Doesn't Kanter now have original autothermic pistons or is that only for inline eights??

Randy, I think I'm up-to-date on this; yes, auththermic strut pistons for most or perhaps even all of the in-line engines. But you may recall that when he offered to have autothermic pistons made for V8s, only 2 or 3 people expressed interest in the venture so I believe the project died for lack of demand. I always was disappointed by that as I was the one who tried to interest Dan and Fred in that project. But for 9 or 10 more people expressing interest we might have had them and Packard V8 owners really missed the boat on that. Not that there seem to be any problems with the current Egge pistons except for those building a really hi performance motor.
