Woah, thats one broken ring!
Did you find this out when just taking the motor apart or did you know that it had a problem?
Sorry to see that Chris.

That's two very broken rings! It's all good.

I knew there was excessive blowby, but I assumed worn rings. I reckon that was the case but I took it too far. The last couple of days before the scheduled rebuild I gave it heaps, and that's what happened.

Got a new block all sorted, didn't want to go over sized as I can't afford it. Plus I want to keep my floating flat-tops.....Should be back together by Friday.
