Tin coated chrome rings are better in a nikasil bore, especially in a hipo application, but i run chrome rings in my nikasil sled motors. iv read its hard on the nikasil

Hey Boomer

Jim Ruck......Wisconsin( 1-902-233-3833) can get titanium re-coated on Merc rings (under $200 for a set if I remember). The best price for new that I found was from Ted @ Speedmaster
FYI
