Topic: Moly or Cast piston rings ?
So we had a ball running the #77 Cordoba in NH. Everybody was super cool are very helpful. I really appreciate that. Unfortunately we kinda blowed up the 400 big block. I am rebuilding a junk yard spare 400 to drop in. My question is the motor is in good condition and the bores are pretty good with little wear. I plan on doing a dingle ball hone job and re-ringing it. However should I use Moly rings which are better for abuse but might not be happy with my low tech cylinder prep, or use cast rings that have a better chance breaking in because they are softer?
I am leaning towards moly.....
When I was young I just slapped this stuff together and somehow it ran, now I am full of " analysis Paralysis"
Thanks!
