Jeep Strokers

Hey guys.
92 cherokee stroker build.
I have ran into a problem.
I bought the clevite 50514CP.030 for my oversized cylinders.
and they dont fit at all. they are like 2/3 thicker than the ones in the pistons.
are there the correct ones I would need ?
thanks for any help.

Those are standard sized rings. If they don't fit you need metric rings. what pistons do you have?

clevite 50514CP are for GM 6 cylinder engines.

Like Chris asked, what are you doing ?

Aren't those ok to use with Jeep pistons that require standard size rings? When I cross referenced Sealed Power E-234X, Mahle 50514CP would come up. Or are the Clevite and Mahale rings for different cars and they just share the same part number? I'm also asking because I have the Mahle 50514CP for my KB944s.

Yeah according to what I was reading they were the same. But after comparing to the old rings. It doesn't appear so

I have the Mahle 50514CP in my KB 944s that require STD rings, and they fit fine. I even put them next to the SP E-234X and the looked like the same size. I guess you should let them know what pistons you are using, I just hope that I didn't get the wrong rings again, and the ring dimensions for my Mahles are 5/64, 5/64 and 3/16.

So something is up here. I was just about to purchase the sealed power rings. but the thickness is noted to be the same at 5/64 in.
I now have the pistons cleaned up enough I can read whats stamped on top.
and it says.
Top line L3
030 P3071
3 9033


A quick google search later found out what they are.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Enginetech-P307 ... 1581643837

It says to Use S38814 rings.
All the info I'm finding on these pistons are that they are for the 4 cylinder engine.
I had great compression prior to pulling it.
anyone know what rings I should buy ?

Pre 95 pistons used a standard width ring. Later 4.0`s used a metric width.

You can fit a metric into a standard but not a standard into a metric.

^^ This

Looks like you have pistons that require 1.5 1.5 4.0 metric rings

You'll need to get:
2M4815 Hastings
E925K Sealed Power

Your correct, Your 50514CP rings are 5/64 5/64 3/16 and would work fine with your 944 Pistons.

Hope this helps

thanks for suggestions on the part numbers.
Ill get them ordered asap and get back to my main thread with pics soon.

On a side note. the metric ring pricing is like double the imperial... ouch.
