Can supply any size piston rings you need. For a real treat try a set with the gapless 2nd ring. Near zero blow by. A performance difference you can feel.

It is a simple re-build, the only difference is on the bearings, you have to be careful putting the front bearing on (#1) , with the spacers and all, re-place the oil pump, and rod cap bolts. have the rods re-sized hone the liners, new rings. Look on http://fullmoonbusclub.com/news.php thec section,I have shown how to O/H the engine. |
