MM owner David McCullough recommended GBH Spares to me, and they provided what I needed: <info@gbhspares.co.uk>

Brian who works there was very helpful, and wrote me the following:

"We have had ring sets done for this engine……though we need to check that you don’t have an odd piston, which is rare but you may have it

"Our kit is a composite ring set which has 2.2mm thick compression rings and both 3 and 4mm thick oil rings in it……it is £53 plus VAT and carriage….we can ship to a U.K. address and we take Mastercard and Visa

"The odd piston has 3/32” compression rings…..so our kit won’t fit that.

"If you can check your compression ring thickness and if 2.2mm…. let us know what you would like to proceed."
