Default Question on these 3.6 pistons

Hi,

I have a 964 that Protomotive built a custom turbo. I'm trying to locate a replacement 100mm piston like this since this one was damaged by a mis shift.

It's a Mahle 100P43 stamped under and shows a A1 and E on top of the piston.
I've compared these to a 3.6 turbo piston, but mine has larger valve cutouts and the center of the piston is dipped or slightly grooved, whereas the factory 3.6 turbo piston has smaller valve cutouts and the center is slightly domed shaped.

Any input would be appreciated...
Thanks GP

There were 100 mm turbo bore in cylinders/pistons to make a 3.3 to a 3.5 as I remember possibly that is what you have. Have you tried Andial? Or EBS in Reno for a replacement piston? Jim
