I have a 312 that I am going to refresh.  It is .040" overbore and has no taper and no ridge and still has a decent crosshatch pattern, so I plan to just lightly hone and re-ring it.

I have always just used cast iron piston rings in previous Y-Blocks, but I have used moly rings in some other type engines.  Are moly rings available for the Y-Block, and if so does anyone have experience with them in a Y-Block?

Thanks, James
