Piston ring thickness?
Was just searching for piston rings and came across 3 different sizes:
2mm, 1.5mm, 4mm <- The ones that I think they are...
1/16, 1/16, 3/16
5/64, 5/64, 3/16
Which ones do I need for a 95 LT1 (Caprice) motor?

From the Mahle OEM catalog:
2.0mm, 1.5mm, 4.0mm ring pack. Mahle part number 2M4626-STD This is with a shallow oil ring groove and light weight. Use with Mahle piston # 027520 (LT1 piston...as well as other 350 GM motors).
