100 shot probably calls for a good aftermarket piston with matching rings. If you don't tune your motor for the 100 shot, rings will be the least of your problems.

You also need to gap your rings. Do not use total seal rings.

Can you elaborate on this? What's involved with this because I am sending my block to JG Engine Dynamics soon for a rebore, sleeves, and rings and I want to get the right stuff.

I think you could do better than JG. Lots of negative posts about them on this board.

Golden Eagle is the best you can do, but a sleeve job alone is around $700.
