Antioch, Illinois, US
Listed is a NEW set of rings for the Dodge-Plymouth engines from 1960-88. with a 3.910" bore. Check with your application if the pistons are later than 1984 as they may have different thickness rings. They have a moly filled top ring, and cast second ring, and chrome oil rings. Top ring 5/64" second ring 5/64" and 3/16" oil ring. They are the finest quality rings available. They also work better than any other brand in used or worn bores. Size is 3.910 Bore, 5/64" x 5/64" x 3/16". I reciently retired from my specialty engine rebuilding business of 50 years and I never had a ring failure or breakin problem with these rings.

Ford Focus ST: Get yer trousers on – you’re nicked!
Wed, 23 Nov 2011Ford Focus ST - filming in The Sweeney We had the arrival of the production version of the Ford Focus ST at the Frankfurt show in September, and it is due to arrive in 2012 – as is a film version of the iconic 1970s TV show about the Met’s Flying Squad – The Sweeney. The Sweeney – for those not old enough to remember – was a 1970s police TV drama starring the late John Thaw and Dennis Waterman as Reagan and Carter – real-life Life on Mars cops; hard-drinking, chain smoking and with a complete disregard for the rules. The Sweeney featured Ford cars front and centre, with DI Reagan driven around in a Ford Consul GT and sidekick Carter foisted in to a Cortina when Reagan sent him off on his own.

Tue, 06 Nov 2012The Jaguar XJ_e PHEV plug-in hybrid has won the RAC ‘Most Energy Efficient Luxury Car Prototype’ and ‘Technical Panel’s Award of Merit’. This year, Jaguar rolled out its experimental hybrid XJ – the Jaguar XJ_e, which we saw at this year’s Goodwood Festival of Speed – which managed to win the award for ‘Most Energy Efficient Luxury Car Prototype’ and also grabbed the Technical Panel’s ‘Award of Merit’ for its clever tech and frugal transit. Jaguar entered three XJ_e PHEV experimental cars in to the FCC, which managed to do the Brighton to London run on just 1.2 litres of petrol and 11kWh of electricity which adds up to an mpg of around 125mpg.
