mj,
I do seem to remember doing a 502 that had Wiseco pistons in it a bunch of years ago. It also had a very unusual ring combination. I will look in my computer at the shop on Wednesday and see what I can find.

mj,
I looked this morning and found the work order I was thinking about. I installed a sleeve and got one Wiseco piston for a 502 Mercruiser back in 2005. As far as I remember the engine was untouched prior to that point. I was wrong about the rings, I used a set of the regular Speed Pro rings for the 502. I dont see that piston number in the Wiseco catalog any more but they have one listed in thier Pro Tru line.
Hope this helps,
