Hi all

I ordered some new rings for my rebuild,
standard stuff, not doing the oversize thing

and these turned up:
existing on the left,new on the right

so the questions I think are obvious,
have I ordered the wrong thing,been sent the wrong thing or are they really going to fit???

Slightly miffed, as I thought I was finally starting to make progress with the car,now another wait while this gets sorted out:(

They look fine, just remember to stagger the gaps egually in thirds
