I agree with Barry on the rings combinations. One of the most imprtant things here is t get the cylinder rund and straight with using the torque plate. The hardness of the block and the material the cylinder is made out of is very important as well. The stones you use and the amount they are used is determined by the things. Also the width of the rings and how you plan on using the engine.
We have several different ways that we hone the blocks and different stones we use on the different materials. I feel that the standard style ring is the best over all way to go and in most street/strip cases the 1/16, 1/16, 3/16 is hard to beat. We use the Mahle rings quite a bit and just about zero ring seal problems or
oil usage. Good luck with your project, Keith Craft
