you just need to order some rings for .030 pistons and a sbc/lt1. Summit or jegs will have plenty to choose from.

You need to find out what size rings they need. Some newer LT1 pistons come with metric rings. Most likely you will need a 1/16", 1/16", 3/16" 4.030" ring set but it is possible you need a 1.5mm 1.5mm 3.0mm 4.030" set.

Thanks,
Shane
