So I was browsing the i boats store, shopping for some rings...
Am I reading correctly , 1 qty only covers one cylinder? You need to buy 4 sets?
Are these Sierra brand chrome moly rings or just cast iron ?

Thanks

you don't want "chrome..they'll never seat. Use stock rings or a quality replacement moly-filled cast iron.

sierra just repackages some one elses rings.

Need 4 sets of 3 rings, 2 comp and 1 oil. Stick with cast as mentioned. Chrome moly will say that they are.
