Hello paul, I don't have much time anymore to do much engine work, way too busy making rings. I sell all over the world and it is just me making rings & filling orders, Wife doing books, Good friend working to install rings work over reed blocks & set timing. I have the rings at $12.00 ea. but no time to pin pistons anymore, Sorry. First Class shipping $4.50. Thanks Frank


Bummer. I will have to pin it myself. No big deal. Its just one more step. Thanks for the info Av8tor.

Yes I did.. that is why I put this up. I tryed to put it on the sticky so ppl know that he did not do pins but it would not let me. So I put it on here so You all can see it and pass it on. The Post you put up is great. I got a lot out of it. With Frank not doing the pin work makes it a little harder. I just mite pass on that ports. but going to try out the rest..

Does anyone have a current list of all the engines he makes rings for? I tried emailing him the other day to see if he makes rings for my Jc Evo 60cc twin. And haven't received a response yet. it seems like he is a busy guy.

He makes rings for anything. There is a huge list of engines he makes rings for, but if your engine doesn't happen to be on the list, you can just send him your piston and cylinder and he will make you a ring for it, then add that engine to his list.

Yes, he is very busy, but usually answers e-mails. If not, try giving him a call.
