PISTONS ?
 
I am sure this has been asked before but please bear with me :old:
Are there any pistons available that fit the OHC-6 ?( Other than Kanter & Egge. )
I am pretty sure the ones RockAuto has listed are incorrect.

About $400 for 6 pistons.

I got mine form their and the engine shop did a complete measurement and they are very well made - all dimensions fit like the compression height

If I need pistons I will go that way. I have the same question for the rings . Anyone make a good set that fits the OEM pistons ? I know at best I will need rings. So far the engine seems to be stock bore. I'll know more after I pull the pistons.

I used the very often recommended Hasting rings 667

Yes, the Hastings cast rings are the way to go.

Thanks guys, I just ordered them. While looking through my parts bins I realized I had exhausted my stock of rings. Did find lots of other goodies ! :D Amazing what we squirrel away.
