Accralite Piston rings
« on: May 08, 2014, 07:45:04 pm »
Are all 77mm piston rings the same?
the price for new Accralite rings is insane! might as well buy new pistons and sell mine!
Could i order other 77mm rings and they fit my accralites?
i havnt measured mine with a feeler gauge but i plan on replacing them regardless during my engine rebuild (have a fair amount of pressure through the crankcase breather) and the car has had a hard life so they will more than likely be worn

If i sell mine how much would they be worth?
thank you guys

Ah man! That price would be lush! Is that for 1341cc pistons? Forged?
I'm wondering if they screwed up or something? Does that price include oil control ring?
Thanks
