    Smoking Beat, engine coming out and looking for some parts

    Hi All,

    Another day, another challenge! Lots of smoke, much worse when the engine is warm. Low compression on cylinder 1, so the engine's coming out and depending on what's found, might need:

    -Valve stem seals (inlet and exhaust)
    -Piston rings (standard)
    -Head gasket

    It looks as though the seals and head gasket might still be available, but we're having trouble with the piston rings. Does anyone know of a source?

    Or happen to have some in that drawer in the garage....

    Thanks! -Jc.

    ps looks like we need a new radiator as well, but that's a different story
