Piston Ring Part Numbers?
 

I read through earlier posts looking for information concerning piston rings for a Model A and found that the majority of posters recommended Hastings brand rings. What I wasn't able to find was any corresponding part number(s).
Could someone that has the part numbers please provide them so I can order the rings at my local parts store instead of one of the Model A vendors and waiting for shipping and delivery? I did find the Perfect Circle part number (506) but would appreciate any other manufactures part numbers as well.
Thanks in advance.:)

Whatever parts house you use will have the number you need

I usually find the best prices are from the Model A parts houses. Combine the rings with needed books or other parts to reduce the high cost of shipping.

Ron & Tom,I was just thinking that if I went into the local parts store with a part number or two it would insure that I get the correct parts. And as far as ordering from a Model A vendor, I do all the time. In this case I would really like to have the rings tomorrow so I can get the engine together. If I ordered them from one of the vendors I've used I'd have to wait until the end of the week to get the parts. I guess I'm just getting impatient in my later years!
Any part numbers anyone?

Model A/B rings are Hastings part # 120 then the size. (Example- 120-020) for .020 over Hastings rings.

Thanks Steve! That's what I was looking for. Now I have the part numbers for Hastings and Perfect Circle. With these two numbers I'm sure I will find a set locally and quick.
