I have a 302 H.O. wtih factory TRW forged pistons,
does these take a MM or standard ring?
they look smaller than a 5/64 ring but I am not sure
which ring pack they take. a 5/64 or a 1.5 MM

thanks for the help

Tony

You have to mic them to be sure...measure the old ring. Most forged trws are metric....
