Few processes in assembling an engine are as tedious as filing piston rings. It requires patience and precision, carefully fitting the top and middle rings to each bore. It's not something for an ...

Over the years, we’ve built dozens of small-block, big-block and LS-based engines where we have set custom ring end gaps. We must admit that we rarely check the end gap on the two small stainless ...

But when done right, piston rings can create a power advantage by maximizing dynamic engine compression while still maintaining good oil control. This involves both proper selection for the intended ...
