Hello,
Been looking around for a set of piston rings for all 4 pistons.
Struggling to find any where really.
Any ideas and recommendations?
Thanks guys

Ring around all your local engine remanufacturers. I payed £108 including VAT for mine after ring around a few places.
Was pretty annoyed that the same branded ones popped up on ebay for £40 a week later but I've not seem them since.

I tried gsf and ecp and neither could supply for me :/ thats why I rang round engine remanufacturers rather than motor factors

If all else fails try grantpistonrings.com they may be American but they get the job done and shipped quickly when I used them, but that was 3 years ago now
