Jumkie, Thanks for the video. I thought the guy was serious until he started to twist the ring. Did he use the ring? This is truly a "Do not try this at home" moment.

w8ye, Ernie, Good technique you got there. I am using the Brison(Mahle) cylinders and rings I got from Bill Jensen. I hone the cylinder with 400 grit paper and have good results with plenty of new compression.
