Which is best?
Which ring brand for a TD?
Goetze, Metal leve, or Grant ,
or none of the above?
The Goetze look cheap enough to export to the UK! -

I've used the Grant and Goetze rings in N/A diesles with excellent results.. Top line rings on the other hand have been questionable..

Quote from: "monomer"
no total-seal rings?
AutohausAZ only carries stock and nearly-stock parts. -

I am in the process of going with Goetz on a set of Mahle pistons in an N/A rebuild. Arizautohaus is who I got them from.
I am sincerely hoping for good results. -

Thanks for the replies guys.
I don't know much about Total Seal. A great idea, but I wonder if their quality is good too. Do they last long? [Just stabbing in the dark here, no knowledge adverse or otherwise]
