Checkered Flag Performance 3.780 Tapered Piston Ring Compressor

Just a quick review to say thank you for producing a great quality tool at a reasonable price. I finally did my 5.3 LS rebuild over the weekend and this ring compressor was indispensable. No sliced fingers, no crooked pistons! I will buy another one every time I need to rebuild a different size engine.

Good tool , excellent saler ! A++

Good investment. Saves so much time.

Worked perfectly for 5.3 ls pistons

It worked great.

This thing is amazing. Made my build problem free.

These are inexpensive enough for the shade tree mechanic to own even if you only do 1 motor. I have used the universal ratcheting band type and have cut both hands. This tool makes installing pistons a breeze.

Makes piston install very easy! Fit perfectly. Make sure u order for the correct bore size

Used this on my LM7 rebuild. I use stock sized pistons and rings and this tool made installing the ringed pistons into the cylinders a breeze. HIGHLY recommend. Personally prefer this over the adjustable compressors as you know you wont be making it too tight or too loose. Obviously the only trade off is having to buy an individual compressor for each engine build assuming you have different cylinder sizes on your other builds.

The quality looks good I havent used it yet but it looks good and sturdy
