Mahle Kolben pistons brand new NOS

Hello everyone, I am new to the board but do not own the very cool Sunbeam car unfortunately. SO I recently bought a small lot of pistons/bearings/crankshafts from a retired machinist. One of the piston sets is a new/NOS set of 4 pistons/rings:
Mahle Kolben
Hillman
they are 68.3mm diameter (+ 0.030)
I cannot read the number well but it looks like H17114.030 ?
Then there is a stamped number 071 14 0.2

I got on this site to make sure they can be sold directly to Alpine owner.
Not even sure if they are even desired or not.

Thank you,
Donald Vieira (Stockton, CA/USA)

Welcome to forum,

I'm thinking those are pistons for one of the Hillman/Sunbeam Imp engines. It's a different design engine with a smaller bore diameter than the Series Alpine and Hillman engines. Approximately 2.69 inches (+0.030) as compared to the "series' engines with 3.00 up to 3.21 inch standard bores.

There is a market most likely, vintage racing or other car owner.

Hope this is helpful,
