    Budget boost rebuild, pistons and rings

    Yea thats rough hay. Im in the middle of sourcing a clutch for my ranger lately so unfortunately my block and crank will sit for another couple weeks [emoji58]. Yea i think ill more than likely use ACL gear. Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk
  2. I have an el engine thats in good nick but needs new rings so was wondering what rings and possibly pistons people have used or what ones to steer clear of? And any tips anyone can think of would be really appreciated. Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk

    Yea fair enough, cams already in the head and the way i see it im not really worried where it makes boost ect with such a light car it would still be fun to drive with out turbo haha.. but yea donno just gotta focus on an engine.. looks like i might just build one.

    Im not sure tbh! I brought the cam kit about 6 or 7 years ago. As for its performance while being boosted i dont know either. Ive heard they work well together but i guess its up to the tuner to make it all work in the end? Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk
