I think both of these are readily available on ebay or other on-line vendors.

I'll have to check on price & availability tomorrow, but the SPI piston kit looks like it usually sells for $28.95. I might be able to do a little better. It will come with piston, rings, pin, and circlips. The puller, assuming you still have a 94C, I can do for $38.

Yep, way to go Matt. It'll take us a little while to get this ingrained in our heads!!! Sooooo glad you're in the business AND your prices look good.

Unfortunately, the Comet 102 puller is unavailable, and will be until CPC starts producing Comet inventory again (if ever).

Matt - Have you as a dealer received any communication from CPC regarding comet production? There were some posts earlier this winter that clutches were being shipped, but that seems to have dried up pretty quickly. Thanks

I just purchased a spring and cam bushings a few weeks ago. The instructions had the cpc name and address on them. The dealer that I purchased them from said they have not had issues getting commet parts lately. But, last year was a different story.
80 Liquifire (purchased 1996 ~ Running)
80 Liquifire (purchased 2010 ~ Running....Now)
80 Liquifire (purchased 2011 ~ Not running - I officially have a problem now)
83 Snowfire (purchased 2014 father/son restoration project)
78 Spitfire ~ sold (should have been shot for this)
