Need a piston for an early SE2a.
I think its an early one as it has the older style whistle

Do you need cylinder and piston? If its just a piston I can make one up for you using one from my SE2a as a model. You mention the 'old type whistle' - are you sure your engine isn't an SE2?

I don't know if this would be of any help?

It would probably make more sense (financially) to have one made given its in the uk.

£8.00 seems a bit too much when you only need the piston. The UK postage he is asking for would be enough to send it to Oz!

I agree, I bought a MIB lever whistle SE3 for less than that in the US a few months ago.

Cheers
