I tried O'Reilly, Advance, and AutoZone....no one has them. I don't really want to buy one. Thanks.

I just used my dremel with a cutoff wheel.

No problems getting them to square up good?

Not if you're careful. You need a fixture to hold either the ring or the dremel. Then just grind a little at a time. When you get close finish it up with a stone.

Talk to sp!tfire. I never found one when we built my buddies 408 in his dodge. We just used a small hand file and did very little at a time. we must have test fit each ring 10+ times.

I found descent ones online for around $40. I'm not near SpitFire so that's not an option unfortunately.

I ordered one from Amazon with free overnight shipping...hoping to have in on Monday. So if anyone else needs one, I'm happy to loan it out to club members after I'm done.
