Default Re: best piston rings?

yeah, like somebody posted, the thickness of the rings is critical, if they are too thin, they will flutter in the ringland giving you shitty blowby, if they are too tight they wont move as they should and you will again have probs. The best way to check the fitment in the ringland is to check the clearance between the ring and the ringland with some feeler gauges and compare it to the specs
