   Hi JJTJR, I just now saw your posts. No I never replaced the rings, of course I gave up on any hope of making it run before I finished, but the rings seemed to me to be in good shape, fitting well into the bore, not loose. Of course I had no reference to really know either way. Looks like a great project you have there, could you post some photos of the entire car?  Thanks - Greg
