Hi all, Anyone know if 998 standard piston rings are still available? Have not been able to find any on the web. The pistons are the 3 ring type with circlips.
Failing that, can anyone suggest a good engine machine shop around Bridgend or Swansea area that will carry out reboring and a crank regrind?
Any help would be much appreciated.

Ok, Somerford have found some for me, but would still like a recommendation for the machining, if any of you have had experience of companies locally.

a fair bit out of your way but i've always used Lyons Engineering in Brynmawr, their work is very good and cheaper than alot of places, plus Mike ( the owner) knows the A series like the back of his hand.
i've got their details here somewhere if you want then

Hi ljonez,
Would certainly appreciate fhose details, don't mind travelling further for someone who knows these engines well.
I just need the crank done on this engine now, but I've got a 1275 that needs the full works soon.
Regards, Mike
