Sealed Power Engine Piston Ring Set P/N:E-553K
Sealed E-553K 60 piston ring set for the 1991-1993 Chevrolet C1500 V8 7.4L and other vehicles seals each piston against its cylinder wall. This engine piston ring set is 0.060 inch oversize and meets or exceeds OEM specifications.
Worn rings can show up as oil use, blue exhaust smoke or lost power, but those signs can have other causes. A shop can run compression and leak-down tests before you commit to a ring job, since those tests need the engine turning. If the engine is already apart for a rebuild, the bores can be looked over for scoring and measured against the bore diameter in the specifications.
The 1991-1993 Chevrolet C1500 V8 7.4L takes one set. The 1991-2000 Chevrolet C2500 V8 7.4L and the 1991-2000 Chevrolet C3500 V8 7.4L are among the many others that fit. If your own vehicle is not named here, find its year and model in the "Vehicles it fits" section.
