Bryan - Chrome rings are harder to break in than moly.  I would only use 
chrome rings on freshly bored and honed cylinders. Moly will USUALLY 
seat on old cylinders that have been ridgid-honed. I have no experience 
with Deves.

The Deves rings look like a good match for a mostly stock 110 that will see a fair amount of abuse dragging around the Greenbrier full of stuff.  Has anyone tried them?  I guess my second choice would be chrome rings, since I know the engine will see some pretty hard use but not high rpms and I don't want to wait for moly rings to break in.
