This guy used as 670cc convertion using a ceramic coated piston - may be something similar?

The XR is 80mm stroke & the dommie is 82mm so i dont think it will work.

I have a Venolia 101mm (654cc) high comp forged piston in mine which gives 11:1 compression ratio on a standard dommie head.

heres some interesting reading for tuning rfvc engines.

Hi Yoshi, yes 80mm for the XR,

My piston came with my Tigcraft racer as a spare, i have an invoice from Race techniques who supplied it:

http://www.racetechniques.com/

Or Venolia themselves should be able to supply it or let you know who is your nearest distributor.

I dont have any pics of the Tigcraft at the moment as it is in pieces.

It is basically the same as this:
