The other day I was putting in new pistons in to my 427 and the ring compressor slipped. When I was putting the piston in and it bent my oil control ring. Not real bad. I have never had this happen. I know that the rings are to move freely once their in. Did the best I could to straighten it got it back on the piston, but the dam thing wouldn’t spin around. Put my compressor ring back on and installed it. Ran the crank around and didn't see any scratches in the liner. Now if I run this. This way won't I lose oil pressure. My machinist told me he wouldn't be scared to run it but I on the other hand say differently. Should I RUN IT our order NEW RINGS at 133.00. It's not that bad just wont spin on the piston but once it's in the block doesn't it stay put. What should I do..... Can't find just 4 rings and two oil control rings if you guys know of any one who sells just rings by them self I would be very happy to here from you......
