    6.9 Blowby...Rebuild or new rings?

    The gapless ring in talking about is 2 two ring on the 2nd ring land. And as for gapless ring have you tore down a tractor motor they have up to 5 ring on the 3 third landing and 4th still and oil ring. So there's lots of debates everywhere but the whole thing is less blow by more thermal...

    6.9 Blowby...Rebuild or new rings?

    Yes because its all about expansion rates. I know in race motor you can go with a .1 over and file it down or get file ring for A cheap gapless ring but they rebuild the motor so often they can do that. I would check piston clearance first you could have glazed cylinder walls. And gapless are...

    6.9 Blowby...Rebuild or new rings?

    If you get oversized ring will hurt more than help. The ring will bust at some point in time on first start up or down the road. And on top of it all you will have piston slab like crazy making it nosie and wear wrong. Im tearing my mine down here soon to fix mine and im going with new pistons...

    Fuel question

    Fuel question

    I do know fuel pressure changes timing but you can still have 5psi with 70gph or 5psi at 30gph. I know when i build a s10 with 350 in it stock pump was 60psi with 35gph we upgraded to a police caprice 60psi at 50gph. It made a difference on a powered 350 and stock 454 pump was 60psi at 35gph in...
