Will They fit
Looking around for piston rings as can only find X16XE and Z16SE rings
So will Z16SE rings fit my C16SE or not ????

Re: Will They fit
C16se is a 79 bore and the rings are 1.2/1.5/3
So that kit won't fit

If it doesn't fit,
force it,
If it breaks,
It needed replacing anyway

Re: Will They fit
Is it worth doing them as read that the 16se is bullet proof so thinking of just doing the head high lift cam and get it all cleaned up and painted up

Re: Will They fit
Well if your taking the pistons out anyway it makes sense to do them
But personally I wouldn't unless you can see any obvious signs of wear in the bore
