Help finding G16b engine parts

Hi everyone hope you are all well! I’m a new member. Apologies if this is supposed to be in a different section. I bought a 1987 SJ413 a few months ago I’ve stripped it down to the bare chassis and can find all parts easily other than parts for the engine.
I can find parts for the standard 1.3 engine easily enough but I’m trying do the G16b engine conversion. This is proving to be a problem as I can not find engine parts such as new valves, pistons etc. I don’t suppose anybody on here knows of anywhere that would stock the parts?

Hi luke, welcome to the club. Where abouts in the country are you? I built a g13b engine for a samurai a couple of years ago, and the engineering company I used for the machining work (boring cylinders, skimming head and block, oversizing crank bearings) were able to supply most of the parts (pistons, bearings, oil pump ect...) the only thing they couldn't find was rods, so I used some ebay aftermarket ones.
