Hey I pulled my engine down due to blowing smoke. As I though time for new rings. But I went to get a set of rings and I found out that ACL have sold up and have moved over seas. I can't find any. So I was told it might be easier to get a new set of ring and pistons. I currently run 20' over so maybe time for a set of 40'. Any help with finding some would be great.

you can't get acl oversized piston rings but you can buy oversize piston + rings for something like $440 bursons quoted me.

rings brand was hastings

 

i wish i wrote down those part numbers.

 

do down to a engine reconditioner and tell him what your after, if they can't get it, they shouldnt have a OPEN sign on there door!

carnt******

i just got 20thou oversized for my 4k. should be easy man, i made one phonecall to my parts man and he had them in 4 days.

 

good times.

ACL were great to deal with, I dunno why the issues. 5K ones were easy to get and they weren't even sold in the Aus domestic market.

 

Mahle make the pistons, ACL are the distributor for them. Call ACL's number.

Do a search on ebay for a bloke called enginebalance, He always has pistons and stuff, but dosn't list everything he's got.

I just got a set of 3k pistons and rings off him for $60 plus postage, I just private messaged him and had no problems.

cheers
