Does anyone on the board know of a source for Volvo MD7a piston kits that are resonably priced? Key here being resonably priced! Most Volvo dealers think these things are gold.
Thanks in advance!

I looked into some parts for my MD7A and they were notably less than most USA sources. Be sure to supply engine serial number when you first inquire and ask for a quote on their cheapest courier (Fedex, UPS, DHL etc.) to the USA. They take credit cards so you should be adequately protected.
I'm curious about the piston prices too, so PM me when you find out, if you don't mind. They may be the most expensive parts in a rebuild.

I just got a flier in the mail from McDonnell Marine announcing all Volvo Penta parts are 10% off during March.
