    rant- ok, So I had went to o'reilys, and ordered a whole set of rings, for the 134,10 over. The gentlemen behind the counter said that they had them at the local wherehouse, be in by 4 p.m. that was thursday. So I said allright. Luckly, I called at 4 to check, and there truck had broke down, so I was told that it would be in saturday. I made the suggestion if I could just pick them up. I was told then that it had to be done through the store. So I said allright. Well I picked them up saturday. Package said .10 just like the piston tops. But when I opened the up the plastic said .30. So I headed back up there today, and they apoligized for it,I told them it was nec. thier fault. The same guy I had been talking too calls around like he did thurs. pass. Now he saying that there not availible in 10 over. That Id have to get it bored to 20 or 30. I know I have seen in some of the early jeep mag's. I have seen them ava., Due I just need to order through the magizine, or what?-rant:?

    What little help I have got in the way of parts here has been O'Rileys, and I deal with only one parts guy there, he is the only one willing to "break out the book" and put in a little effort, most of the stuff has been one day away, push rods, fuel pump, rings.... OK but I hate to wait....Vic
