Like photoshop but with welding? ;^)
they had a frontside pic that matched the one you show @GLJ

interesting When last had Mr bore do a bunch of jugs for Cruzin pistons he said "I got tired of measuring pistons that were all EXACTLY the same size".
Who is they?
That pic came from a post from a day or so ago.

The guy at the shop did the finish sizing today, when I got there he handed me the micrometer and I got the same answers he did. Not concerned with this, he thought maybe they were from 2 different runs.

Still looking for any insight on piston rings, not putting it together with gaps like that.

Little derail: there's a Hurricane up for auction in a few minutes @ Mecum
 
get in touch with cruzin?
Might check with hoos, but don't know if his JE rings will match the cruzin pistons.

Got a response from cruzin and can't help.

Been looking at Summit Racing and have found sets with 1st and 2nd rings that have the bore I want and the correct axial thickness. No luck on the oil rings but the ones I have could be used.
