Re: Snowfire piston rings

Did you get chrome rings? If so where?
And the arrow on these S.P.I pistons the arrow is pointing the right way. The rings don't pass over any ports. But they came with rings for a chrome cylinder. Soni believe there Cast iron rings, witch is not compatible with nickasel cylinders
