ok so i found out i had a chipped piston on my 95 V6 Base Mustang, (my piston is .75mm oversized btw) the ring was bent so i need to get new rings, the problem is, i found the .75mm ring kit but its too expensive for me rn because ive already put hundereds in parts because of the other stuff i found broke when i tore the engine apart. so to the point, im wondering if i could go with the cheaper .030 rings instead of the .75mm ones, i was told they would work but im not really sure so i put pics of both the .030 and .75mm parts so you can look up the part and help me figure out if the .030 wil work, thank you.
