Which piston rings to use??
Hi i have a 2001 ws6 and will rebuilt the engine and put afr or tsp heads, and a 224/228. I have LT headers and flt level 4 trans.
I rebuilt it 2 years ago, and the engine was honed, and i am having porblems with oil consumption, and i am taking down the engine to upgraded and will change piston rings just in case these is my problem
Which piston rings you recommend, without taking in consideration the price, it is for a DD car.
I have the sealed power ones at the momentinstalled, and i have read that people have had problems with total seal so i will not consider that one

Problem with Total Seal rings? thank the internet for that.
Far as racing is concerned Total Seal is one of the largest suppliers of rings.
We've seen backyard installers, install rings upside down, mixed the top ring with 2nd ring, so i'd take any comment about Total seal or any other ring manufacture i'd take with a grain of salt.
If you want another choice i'd go with Mahle plasma moly ring set, part number 3903MS-15
let me know if you need a set?
