I have to put rings in the motor I got from Coyote.
I may go ahead and order Xfi pistons and ring set when I get started doing the work.
I have found it to be in my best interest to do pistons with rings during a tear down. Got burned once by a cracked ring groove and it left a bitter (and expensive ) taste in my mouth.
I'll keep you posted.
