Hello,

I need somewhere to buy piston rings, the only ones i've found are on ebay from osama's cave. Plus they're asking to measure the oil ring (<<< How do you do this?).

Will also be buying other things so a good a site would be appreciated =)

Only really need the rings, might aswell do the big end bearings while they're off.

Cheers for the help lads

But then i could be buying other peoples shit, which 9/10 cases it's exactly that, rebuilding it aint a problem as i'm fortunate enough to do it.

Plus once it's done it's done. I could get a redtop for £300, but then that's another world of hassle on a 20 year old engine.
