Im trying to find out where to get some stock LQ4/LQ9 piston rings, not sure what other engines use the same rings but if someone has either a GM part number or link to a site like summit or a sponsor who carries stock or moly rings for these engines. Looking for some cheaper ones, nothing real expensive.
Thanks
Mike

Are both Moly? I have used Hastings in the past and I love em. I may go with the speed pro though. So Im assuming you can use any rings as long as they are the same specs:
4.000" 1.5mm / 1.5mm / 3mm
4.000" 1.5mm / 1.5mm / 3mm

well actually mine are in a 5.3L but they also start with 2m part number. I believe the M in the part number stands for molly. I threw the box out but saved the part number tag portion of it and it does say moly... I also remeber them being moly when I installed them 2-3 weeks ago... ![Thumb](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies2/thumb.gif)
FWIW Hastings .020 over 5.3L Part number is 2M 4978 020
