Why don't you tell the truth and say the ringlands are shot. ::)

btw, replacing the rings means you need to hone the block too.

The ring lands blew when it was turbo smartass, I rebuilt it after that and took the turbo off. I will get pics tomorrow

I messed up the ring land in piston #3 and I replaced the piston and the rings for that piston. Then I drove it carefully for about 100 miles and boosted 10lbs again...this time it lasted 1 day before 3 piston ring lands were fried this time.
