Piston rings for a supercharger?
I'm building a supercharged 383 stroker and I was wondering what kind of piston rings would best suit my application. Any suggestion on the brand? Gapless? Oil rings?
Also, I will be needing a windage trey and need suggestions on that too.

You may want to post this in "Forced Induction". More likely to get some responses.
Gapless rings are something people either love or hate. I have never used 'em and don't have an opinion one way or another. Most blower cars use a regular moly ring set with the gap opened up just a bit from what the ring and/or piston manufacturer recommends. That's what I do.
