I am rebuilding my V8.
Because i also have done some Landrover V8's i had some spare parts for the engine of my 101FC.
The main bearings are the same, but now i found out that the piston rings are different.
The piston rings for the Landrover engine are 1,6mm thick and the piston rings for the rover engine are 2mm thick.

does any one know where to get the right ones?
 
I checked my piston rings on the 101FC and they have the same dimensions.
So i think this set is for a rangerover.
 
i would phone v8 tuner or real steel on such matters. Both are well qualified to help get you the right rings.
 
When i have replaced rings on a V8 there was only 2 types listed .
P6 engines up to the start of SDI.
SDI after 1976.
I think SD1 rings are narrower.
Purchased all my V8 engine parts from Real Steel for the last 30 years,all been good quality.
