[QUOTE="craig, post: 14395, member: 1959"] what is the technique to installing the cylinder down over ringed piston? Is this method preffered? Or should i install the piston/rings down the cylinder and let the wrist pin peek ouk for pin install? If a ring compressor is required, what exact brand and details should i look for? i am not looking for a lecture on piston ring compressors. What would be best are part numbers and websites. I realize i could use hose clamps. I realize i could use a roll of shim stock. I am looking for the professional Vincent mechanic approach, as i will be repeating this several times if not more. Evidently this is so basic, it is not found in VRH, KTB or VOH Any help is fantastic, thanks Craig F5AB/2A/7090 F5AB/2A/8530 [/QUOTE]
