    I know some cross references for some ferrari engines for rings. Make sure those pistons are good first! Let us know which car and pistons you have and we can help.
    And if all else fails you can have a set of pistons made easy enough

    I can recommend Superformance in the UK.
    They have an extensive range and sort of nice to support a company that obviously has the continued interests of older Ferraris top of mind.

    VERY dependant on the part - some items have OEM specs/tolerances that the aftermarket suppliers are NOT aware-of, and are making parts that don't quite live-up to the OEM quality. Be very careful here....not all parts are created equal. I would speak with Brian Crall, David Feinberg, or Dave Helms before declaring a good 'substitution' has been located. Often times, these guys have had to pull those 'substitution' parts OUT of a failed engine, and that isn't a good situation to find oneself if just to save a few bucks for a part or two....
