Help with 421 rings |

|
My �75 421 engine is ready to be put back together and finally |
|
have some chance of starting. Maybe even using it some day :) |
|
The rings needed are 92mm 3mm2mm and 4mm oil seal). The largest |
|
oversized available is 91.5. (616.915-10-002714) |
|
Don�t seem to be available at all. Any thoughts where to source |
|
or why the big bore? I was hoping these rings are used in |
|
another merc engine or other vehicle but can�t make any headway. |
|
Ta. |

Hi the 615 engine was used in some cars trouble is it was a |
|
short run so parts could be hard to find worth trying Manfred |
|
prince at Westfield 4x4 he does a lot with the 636 and maybe |
|
able to source some rings. I�ve fitted a 616 into a 421 before |
|
that�s a good conversion. Still got the 605 engine 😂 |

Cheers Moose. Looks like it is the 616 engine as the engine |
|
number starts with 616. |
|
I trie Manfred P already plus plenty of others. This I have |
|
finally found a set. Almost 400 euro though!Hopefully this will |
|
be the last piece of jigsaw for motoring. I can get another 616 |
|
engine from a car for the same price. The clutch may be a |
|
problem joining up and also wouldn't know its history. Thanks |
|
for responding. |

Maybe the rings are the same as a 617? |

They were Mahle (4th rebore) set, rare and had to shell out the |
|
big bucks in the end. It was a size bigger than Merc recommended |
|
boring to apparently. |
