Found WTB Piston rings for 1600-2 Mahle Pistons

[Captain_Keram]

EDIT: forgot to mention the piston diameter with a micrometer is 83.92 mm which is the 83.97 mm pistons per spec. 

 

Hey everyone. So I have these Mahle pistons in the engine of my 1600-2. I cannot seem to find piston rings for them anywhere. The production number as far as I can tell is 84V27. If anyone knows where I can get piston rings for these please let me know. As right now my engine rebuild is at a stand still.

Forgot to put piston diameter

Why do you want the Mahle ones?  They are the one piece oil ring, not the best.  The 3 piece oil rings are better    Deves maybe

 

Check Ireland

 

Thanks, Rick

@tech71 yea I had gone on eBay and got my first set of piston rings off there. They are 84 mm bore std piston rings. But they were to tall for the piston.

From this seller? He has listed the ring dimensions

Reach out to Deves and Hastings.  Offer to send in a piston worth of your used set.
