Ring set?

Postby BOB K. » Thu Feb 19, 2004 9:54 am

I am looking for a new piston ring set. Does anyone know if NAPA Auto carrys them and what the part # would be. Also what part# a gasket set is. Thanks For the help.

If you can't fix it with a hammer, you've got an electrical problem.

Bob,

Give Joe Rice a call at Joe's Farmalls. (814) 226-6214
He'll sell you a good set of rings for half what NAPA gets. I just did two engines using his rings and gaskets.

i used two different sets of gaskets. both, i think were in the $6X.00 range.
the Federal Mogul set was not as complete and was missing things like touch control pump gaskets. The Victor Reinz set #FS1879X (from NAPA) did (both ends!).

NAPA did carry ring sets, but i don't remember what i paid.

I took a look at Joe's Farmall, from Georges post. Looks like he's got a pretty good selection of commonly needed parts. i'm going to give him a try on a carb kit, muffler, and decals.
