Does anyone have advice on which rings to use on a 2.1 wbx? I just got my free 2.1's heads off and found some cross hatching still in the cylinders, no pitting on the sealing surface of the AMC heads (they look brand new), but a bunch of flaky carbon on the heads and piston tops. It looks like a very well taken care of motor, the water jacket and head studs show ZERO signs of corrosion. I was told it had a rebuild 30k ago, and everything looks great, should I go ahead and re ring it? I found the tiny tear in the green o-ring on cyl 1 that was causing the problem that made to PO swap in a WRX Subie. With that in mind, I'll be replacing the lower o-rings as well, so I feel like a re-ring wouldn't be any extra work. Thanks everyone! Brendan Slevin
