Just used an ARP ring compressor that I purchased some time back. Up till now I have always used an expandable type, the ARP tool is sized specific for the intended cylinder bore so it may not fit everyone's needs. I just want to let you know this thing works slick as snot. The Piston and rings just slide through and straight into the cylinder, no muss, no fuss. While I'm building a 327, the 4" bore being .030 over-sized, it's the same for many SBC's I may build later so I didn't think it to be a waste of money.
