Help with 421 rings
Stickman:
My ‘75 421 engine is ready to be put back together and finally have some chance of starting. Maybe even using it some day :)
The rings needed are 92mm 3mm2mm and 4mm oil seal). The largest oversized available is 91.5. (616.915-10-002714)
Don’t seem to be available at all. Any thoughts where to source or why the big bore? I was hoping these rings are used in another merc engine or other vehicle but can’t make any headway.

Hi the 615 engine was used in some cars trouble is it was a short run so parts could be hard to find worth trying Manfred prince at Westfield 4x4 he does a lot with the 636 and maybe able to source some rings. I’ve fitted a 616 into a 421 before that’s a good conversion. Still got the 605 engine 😂

Stickman:
Cheers Moose. Looks like it is the 616 engine as the engine number starts with 616.
I trie Manfred P already plus plenty of others. This I have finally found a set. Almost 400 euro though!Hopefully this will be the last piece of jigsaw for motoring. I can get another 616 engine from a car for the same price. The clutch may be a problem joining up and also wouldn't know its history. Thanks for responding.
