Checkered Flag Performance 3.780 Tapered Piston Ring Compressor

Junk

One of the best investments I’ve made.

Works great best money spent on a ring compressor

used for stock bore pistons, stock size rings with 20 thou gap. never going back to old style ring compressors ever again. used it only once, i will probably never use it again, but il looks good on my shelf. it will save you a lot of headaches!!

Good investment. Saves so much time.

Works excellent for a stock rebuild on a 5.3 ls. Pistons slide right into the block no problem.

If you have a set bore you are working with, this tool is amazing to use. Soo much better then any adjustable one I have used in the past. It was so easy, I thought something was wrong.

Works perfect

Used this on my LM7 rebuild. I use stock sized pistons and rings and this tool made installing the ringed pistons into the cylinders a breeze. HIGHLY recommend. Personally prefer this over the adjustable compressors as you know you wont be making it too tight or too loose. Obviously the only trade off is having to buy an individual compressor for each engine build assuming you have different cylinder sizes on your other builds.

This is the king of ring installers , no more fighting the compressed style . Slide in from bottom , and can actually tap pistons in cylinder by hand.
