I have a rl53 that Im going to put back together Been trying to find a piston ring for it But havn't had any luck I wanna make sure it's the right ring and not waste $. They have been out of stock forever. Am I missing something? Can you use a ring from another engine like OS or something?

Here's all the parts at Tower Hobbies. Looks like they're using the 50 ring.

Yea"" Looks like the 50 pro ring is all they got but is not written that it fits on the RL53. Im not changing everything on the engine would suck if the new ring was a problem causing more damage.
