Is TPUSA no longer in business? If so what is one to do if they need a piston etc. for their 904 kit. I would assume that the 813 cams could be sourced through Web because that is who ground them for TPUSA. I don't need these replacement parts but just wondering about tech and product support for products purchased from them.

the pistons are Wiseco I think so as long as they still make or have some you should be OK. I know they no longer make or have the 865 high compression pistons though.

I'm not ever expecting any problems but it's to bad that they are no longer in business. The pistons that came with my kit were Arias. I still have the original 790 cams and the cam profile spec sheet for the 813/Web Cams was included with the cams.

The last I heard(and this was in November of 2016 and when I was back in the L.A. area for the big Hansen Dam British M/C rally and while there stopped into Matt Capri's shop in Lomita to say hello), his big bore specialist Carlos was still operating this part of their old operation.

My suggestion would be to place a call to the phone number I still see listed on their website...310 784-7693...and see if there's been a change in policy or even if Matt has decided to shut down his operation entirely and has closed his doors for good. He is getting up in age now. I think he's now about 75. And besides, when I visited him that Saturday afternoon, it was as quiet as a cemetery at midnight inside his then only Norton and Royal Enfield dealership, and I did get that whole "writing on the wall" feeling, if ya know what I mean.

(...good luck)


Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)
