350F
« on: April 28, 2015, 01:51:28 AM »
I have fitted an aftermarket set of rings to my honed bores and cleaned and checked Pistons, they looked good but now wonder if I should have used NOS rings....any opinions?
Cheers
Chris

If the ring gap tested OK, and they were installed with the proper orientation, I wouldn't be concerned.
