The metric ring pack will have less surface fricton on them freeing up some HP & TQ. I have seen results as much as 11.2 HP & 7.9 fllbs TQ(part of this could also be piston design). That is also the same ring pack that is used on the LS1's from GM. I think that the stock LT1 pistons used a 1.2mm 1.5mm 4mm ring pack if memory serves me correctly.

If you have never done a set, go SLOW. It takes material off quick. I used a hand crank file grinder and it was quick when you got close.
