You might try www.autohausrc.com.
BTW, is the sleeve scored at all? Low compression? You may just need the piston ring. I've replaced the ring in my 70 twice, tho, no sleeve/piston and it runs strong.

Try autohausrc.com for the piston & ring, that's where I got mine. Do a search for PISTON. You might want to email or call them first on the availability.
