Hello Been a while since I posted on here. Been sick. Anyways I have been working on a 354 Hemi and was wondering if anyone knew of a place other then Hotheads to pick up Piston Rings. The rings are .040. I tried to get on to the Hothead forums but they seam to be down for me for past 6 months. I can find the rings on Rock Auto and such for 392 but not for the 354. Thanks for any advice
I found std, 20, 30, and 60 at Northern Auto Parts. You picked the wrong size bores! (Hastings number is 2M636-oversize for moly rings, 636- for plain iron)
I mean if your engine had one of the other bore sizes, you'd be able to find rings pretty easily. Sorry for the confusion. Did you try calling hotheads?
No I haven't called hotheads yet. I am waiting for a guy that sells hasting rings on ebay to see if he has any. Last year I found them everywhere. If I had a 392 they are everywhere but 354 no go
I have called hotheads in the past and some one has always picked up and been very helpful. Not sure why the website is down.
@Bambamshere , if you are still looking for +.040" 354 hemi pistons rings, we show to have 1 set (NOS) in stock . Just give us a call or www.egge.com
@41rodderz , We also deal with Kanter Auto Parts as a master distributor and they also buy from us in the same manner. Also, don't forget about HotHeads (early hemi specialist) in N.C. We are here to help out the vintage & early hot rod community
In the wildly unlikely event the above suggestions yield nothing, I had good service from Deves in Las Vegas. http://www.deves.com/ Phil
As squirrel notes in post #2, Hastings has the rings. Have your parts guy order a set or look at ebay
That's weird. I just went back and looked at my purchase history and I have about a half-dozen orders that I placed during the timeframe that you say that the website was down. They were all through the website. I have never seen it down. I wonder if this was a DNS issue, or a problem with your ISP. I have three 354s coming together right now, all with those parts. Now if Ross would get yo my piston orders....
