JE Pistons Ring Sets 1/16-1/16-3/16 RING

When you're rebuilding the top end of your engine, getting the piston rings seated properly is crucial for performance and longevity. This set from JE Pistons is designed to help you achieve that precise seal, maximizing combustion pressure and ultimately, horsepower. They offer these rings in a wide variety of sizes and thicknesses to fit many different engines, and this particular set is for an 8-cylinder application.

This specific ring set features a 0.064 inch ductile iron plasmy moly top ring, known for its durability and ability to seal combustion pressures effectively. The second ring is also 0.064 inch and made of iron phosphate, which helps with oil control and further enhances the seal. For the oil control, you get a 0.188 inch carbon steel chrome low tension oil ring. These are file-fit rings, meaning you'll need to gap them to your specific cylinder bore for optimal performance, a common practice for performance builds.

JE Pistons is a well-known name in performance engine building, and the same advanced services they offer to top racing teams, like back cutting and PVD coating, are available to the public. While this set is not CARB approved and cannot ship to California, it represents a solid option for those looking to get the most out of their engine rebuild.
