CCKW ENGINES REBUILT IN EUROPE
Are for the most part perfection, but those French ERGMA Rebuilts can give you fits when you disassemble them for rebuild. some of the 50s and 60s, have been found to have been reassembled with borderline used components, and some may have a French origin Piston that is unlike the GMC Originals in that it will have an extra Piston Ring at the bottom of the skirt. The GMC Factory rings will not fit and even if they did, you would have to use two sets to get the extra rings. It is best to convert back to OEM pistons and Rings, as the availability of the European components is unknown, and not found over here.
