[Mk2] [Turbo] clocking rings for forged pistons

Post by Icharus »

Hi all,

I'm currently rebuilding my motor and have got some Mahle pistons to drop into the block. The instructions from Mahle have different positions when clocking the rings compared to the toyota manual.

Which one should I use?

Cheers
