I'm currently chasing a set of compression rings for a 272, 20thou over motor (0.090" width) as I have a compression problem, but will take the oil rings as well in a set if required.  They are very hard to source here in Australia as I can't find any except for some "chrome" ones, but I've been told they should only be put into a new fresh bore, and not into mine which I'm planning to give a light hone only.

Any help is greatly appreciated as I'm happy to pay extra for the exchange rate and postage etc as I just can't source them here.  30thou no problems, but not the 20's I'm looking for.  All my pistons, bearings etc are great hence just chasing the rings and going to clean up the valves and seats as well.   I was planning to get right into it this week as she is all apart, but can't locate any rings.

Cheers
