Hey all. So my machine shop guy suggested i look for some rings before i drop off my block. Simple set up Roller 98 Vortec motor, Sealed Power L2256F30 slugs mounting on stock rods, Single plane victor, Comp nitrous cam. I got the pistons pretty cheap through work so im pretty much set on using them. So here's where i turn to you guys. I need rings for 5/64 3/16 gap..Its going to get sprayed with a 150 shot and knowing how i am and what happened to my last motor i'll end up stacking 2 plates and upping the shot to see how much it'll take and get away with. And suggestions on Ring brands and gap? Sorry for rambling on but im writing this on my phone during a meeting :roll:

And if you don't want to spend as much as you did on your pistons for rings, just put a set of summit plasma moly rings in it. I have been using them for years with no problems. I gap them wide and let it eat.
