Piston Rings Fudge UP!
I bought 81.50mm JE Pistons from Redline_Engineering a month or so ago. Well, they arrived with one ring set missing. No biggy. I contacted him to send me the missing piece. After difficult time getting a hold of him he tells me to call JE and order my rings and he will paypal me the money.
Today the ring set arrives from JE. As soon as i opened the box i knew they were wrong or i got fudged by Redline_Engineering. The oil ring is totally different!
Upon closer inspection I looked at the instructions that came with the pistons that Redline_Engineering sent me and it says WISECO on it!!!!!!!!!
How can I have JE Pistons with Wiseco rings? I have waited a very long time to get these in my block and it looks like its not going to happen. I have asked JE and they have said to only use JE rings with their pistons. And many others on HT board told me to get JE ones also. There is no way i am going to use 3 Wiseco ring sets and 1 JE ring set in my engine.
I have sent Theo (Redline_Engineering) details what is going on and I hope things get sorted out. If i knew these were wiseco rings with JE pistons i would have never bought it!
here are pics so u can judge for yourself:
