I don’t really know which brand has what, it seems they are not always the same every time you order anyway. I have used numerous sets of County brand pistons over the years, and they could come with either style. The last set of Hastings rings I bought were the wavy ones, I ordered them thinking they wouldn’t be 🤷
I love the look of a freshly machined and painted block or head.
Really enjoy all your engine rebuild videos. You always do a great job explaining stuff.
Thank you, there’s more to come😁
