Does anyone know if these are any good?

Building up a list of engine components that I will need for a rebuild so if these were any good, could I plonk any pistons I wanted on top?

Can't vouch for how genuine these are. I've had this place on my watch list since last summer, they used to do JE pistons for about £400 / set then they changed over to CP and started bundling them with each rods.

TBH with any ebay purchase there's no guarantee it's the real thing.

Of the 2 links I would go with the package deal...
Part numbers correspond correctly and that appears to be a good deal (but watch out for import duty)
