I torched my last engine at the drag strip with too much ignition timing and boost.
I am picking up a new engine block virgin bore. It is going .030" over with forged diamond pistons meant for boost according to them. What type of piston rings and material should I fit to this build? I have a F1A procharger pushing 14psi into the last motor.
I have an eye for those total seal gapless rings. However, I see they make top ring and second ring gapless but I do not know if I should get both or just one or the other? I hate oil consumption and I feel this would be the right way to go.
Lastly, Diamondracing suggests with their 'turbo/blower' pistons to match their rings with it which are plasma moly top ring, RBT(?) iron second rings and standard tension oil ring. Does this sound good as well?
