Frequently asked questions

What does the 3.5L V8 piston ring set (BHM1171) do?
The piston ring set seals one piston against the cylinder bore on the 3.5L Rover V8, providing combustion sealing, oil control and heat transfer. Part number BHM1171 suits the standard bore at 8.25:1 compression, as used in the Range Rover Classic and 101 Forward Control.
How many piston ring sets are needed for a V8?
This piston ring set covers a single piston, so a complete 3.5L V8 rebuild needs eight sets. Order eight of BHM1171 for a full engine, or fewer if you're only working on individual cylinders at standard bore.
What are the signs the piston rings need replacing?
Worn piston rings on the 3.5L V8 typically cause blue exhaust smoke, high oil consumption and reduced compression. Rings are usually renewed during a full engine rebuild or rebore rather than in isolation. This set suits the standard bore at 8.25:1 compression.
Is BHM1171 the same as BR3677?
Yes. Piston ring set BHM1171 supersedes the older BR3677 part number for the standard-bore 3.5L V8. If your records or manual reference BR3677, BHM1171 is the current replacement for the same standard-bore, 8.25:1 compression application.
