Rings for stock pistons

What are my options? Trying to keep it as low budget as possible. Just for the stock LT1 mahle pistons, stock bore.

I missed the part where you said you had Mahle pistons. It would be hard for me to not get the Mahle rings in that case...

No, the stock hypereutectic pistons,that are made by Mahle. Not the forged aftermarket pistons.

Mahle has been making the OEM pistons for ford and GM for over 10 years - They are the largest piston manufacturer in the world.
