Sorry no rings. Diamond said it was two to four weeks for a set and I'd have to get them thru hesco. I think if you have enough time to call everyone a couple times and then wait for them to call around you might get a break some where. I've already burned more than 200 more in gas driving my 72 GMC backup work truck.

I was gonna go with the +.020", so it's good to see that the price is still the same as was quoted to me on those. Supposedly the +.060" aren't available yet, but I guess that extra $200 is for the additional .040".

The .060 pistons shouldn't be any more money. Just curious why anyone would want to bore a 4.0 any less than .060 over if they're looking for performance gains? Here's some pics of the KB944's (.060) in my new 4.7 .

Rugged Ridge stainless. 1/2 the price of a Borla. I installed the engine and its running beautifully. The header fit excellant and has no leaks. I havent driven it yet though.

Very nice. I actualy ordered a Rugged Ridge black painted one yesterday. $239 and it looks stout. Hope it won't leak.
