I have used Total Seal piston rings many times, and that is my "go to" pist=
on ring.

Hello Amici,
=C2=A0

A discussion with my machine shop man led to some thoughts about piston rin=
g selection.

=C2=A0

He recommended getting in touch with Total Seal. I of course took a look at=
 their website to discover a mind boggling selection of ring types.

=C2=A0

Can any of you share your ring choices?

=C2=A0

I will be having JE Pistons make a custom set of forged pistons for me.

=C2=A0

I am in need of ring thickness dimensions as well. Should this come from th=
e factory (GT6) pistons I currently have in the car?

=C2=A0

Your thoughts are appreciated!
