The best place for rings (for any engine) is Frank Bowman.

Cost will probably be around $10 and you could arrange to send him your piston and liner as well so he can set up the ring perfectly.

It may be a few days before he answers his E-mail?
He manufactures repro and current piston rings for our modeling needs. He can make standard and Dykes type rings. If he doesn't have the ring you need in stock, you send the piston and cylinder and he will make it then. prices are around $9.50. His work is of the finest quality.
Frank can be reached at:

RE: I need a ring for a ST G-51
The rear bearing is showing signs of going bad after having the engine for 6 months. Knowing my mechanical skills of rebuilding egines I'd say it's an even chance I'll destroy the ring during the process (ie.. if I have a replacement ring on hand I won't need one) I don't know if this was a fluke or a bad bearing or could be related to the new nation of manufacture ??????????
