Yeah, the SAME exact pistons returned to the same cyls. I made double sure of that. They got new rods, but the rings never came off. Everything seems ok, so far, gonna drop it tomorrow I HOPE if I get off work early enough, otherwise friday is the day, I think.

Yeah all that shits playing with me, I used some RTV. It seemed to fit on there snug and nice, no way to tell until I start it up, ARP studs, OEM gasket, Im hopeful.
