Special Piston Services began in the 1970’s when John Patterson, formally of Repco Research, could not buy pistons to suit his Race boat. He decided to make his own, using materials supplied from the United States of America to manufacture his own pistons local to Victoria. Many things have changed and much has been learnt along the way from working with leading touring car teams with Cosworth Sierra’s and V8 Falcons through to Bate’s Australian rally car team til now with the university’s alternate fuels program.
