Flathead Piston Help! .060 over 3 ring setup?

[Jay Ess]

Looking for 3 ring cast pistons & rings .060 over with a 4.00" stroke.

I have been able to find 4 ring sets @ .060 over but not 3 ring sets.

3 ring sets seem to start at .125 over.

My block is freshly bored @ .060 over and would like the 3 ring setup for the reduced friction. Thanks, js

Thanks. You know I thought of that, but was not sure if it was OK to do that. (I also did not want to sound stupid)

What ring groove width ?

If it is 5/64" 5/64" 3/16" you need 5075 .060" Hastings set
