Title: Which A65 piston rings?
Post by: DAVE BRADY on 13 Jul, 2025, 14:00
Hi,

What brand of piston rings are people using for A65 these days.
Goetze and Riken are impossible to find and some of the American suppliers of Grant and Hasting rings either will not ship to the UK or need a big purchase due to some tariff's regulations.
I need +0.040".

I am going to use this set, 25 years ago when i rebuild the engine this went in +0.60 .
Now after another rebuild i managed to buy a new set of these.
The old rings were in good nick so to say.

Hi,

Does this company still exist?  I found IMD pistons but they only show A7/A10.
