This engine has 4.375" bore Mahle pistons (part # BBM350375F08) and "thin" (1.5,1.5,3.0mm) rings. The only mfg that I find with this size rings is Mahle. Anyone know if there are other choices available, or is Mahle the best/only way to go? Thanks, Brian

I think mine where Moly top, cast second non Napier and low tension oil rings for the vacume pump. I would call Hastings and Total Seal to see what they both offer Mr.Cab Racing and winning with Mopars since 1964. (Old F--t, Huh)
