Default Hellfire rings on Manley pistons OK
I would like to use hellfires on these pistons. Does anyone know for sure if the ring grooves are the same base diameter? Thanks

whatever the ring groove sizes are in the piston, just order the correct rings for the BORE SIZE, RING GROOVE SIZE, OIL RING TENSION.

I know that, but on the Manley box it says to use only Manley rings due to the inner machining of the ring groove may be different from other manufacturers.
