    The weight of Piston Rings

    Had a phone call from Andy down at basset down balancing and ive forgotten to include the bloody rings for him to balance the crank.

    Does anybody know the weight of a set of rings so I can ring him tomorrow.

    They are heavier when covered in blood

    Seriously though - probably best you send them a set of rings to be sure.

      I guess the weight would be dependent on the rings you are using?
