Reply to "TRW L2416F Piston Compression Height?"

Since this motor has only 8000 miles on it since a rebuild, I would re-use the rings too.

Just make sure they go back into the same bore they came out of.

(assuming both pistons use the same ring package)

while the motor is out of the car its a good time to replace the pilot bushing and the throw-out bearing unless they are only 8000 miles old. while the pan is off its a good time to make sure the rod nuts are not the factory parts, but have been replaced with good quality ARP stuff (factory rod bolts are OK, its the nuts that fail). The crank damper should be replaced if the motor is still equipped with the 40 year old factory part.
