Thick versus thin piston rings

Post by jnbmoore » Sat Sep 08, 2018 6:54 pm

Just went to install a set of standard piston rings for my 65 Dream and discovered the top two were too thick. Checking Bill Silvers book, he discusses thick and thin rings. The rings I had were 13010-266-000. Obviously, my pistons take the thin rings. What is the correct part number for these rings and are they the same as the rings in the CL and CB77?
