I ordered new rings and they sent the following...the package says 3189XC, which are 81 mm and when I look them up it's a Kawasaki/Yamaha application. According to the Wiseco website, the K566M81 pistons use 8100XX piston rings. Are they the same/correct?

 

You try calling and asking them?

I found out that the XX set has a higher tension oil ring than the XC set.

 

what's the difference in tension?

I just got off the phone with one of the sale rep. asking what pistons to use with my B18C1 84mm bored block. His answere:"I don't know" He proceeded to look it up and came back and said "...the biggest size we have is 82mm..". I then said "Since you have pistons that spec for CRV/Vtec that is 84mm rate at 11CR, can I use that?". He then said "It is posible that you can do some sort of modification to make it work"
