LB7: Piston Rings?

[Trippin]

Not all rings are created equal. The OEM top ring is steel. The Perfect Circle are cast iron and won't hold up to the heat as well. Mahle now owns PC so the replacement rings they sell are really PC. If you want a set with steel top rings for less than $400, give me a call.

Guy, are you saying the Mahle/PC rings are less than adequate for our engines?

 

[Trippin]

The OEM rings are steel for a reason.

Well there goes that idea I really had no intentions of re-using my rings but accordiing to the builder the stock bore OEM rings are on back order I just want to get my engine back ASAP but I dont want to do it half a$$ed either... Any luck on finding any Henry??? :hug:

Since this thread has been bumped back to the top already,, (update) I ended up going with OEM rings that Guy had in stock at a very fair price IMHO...:thumb:

What rings came with my forged mahles guy? I can't remember for the life of me?

I got my rings from SoCal, I think Guys price was very reasonable :thumb:
