Saabeh, another question about your rings...
Total seal makes conventional rings and a gapless kind where there something like a bridge where the end gap would normally be. I believe if you set the end gap at .000 on conventional rings they would expand and somehow bend out of shape and not seal. I think the gapless ones have 2 parts and they can expand and contract with the heat and pressures that the cylinders see. I am not shure if they are good for longevity, but someday I will try them.
I have herd claims of them sealing so well the engines will suck more Vac at idle, normally like 20 in. HG, you might get 23-26 in. HG
I saw this in the Jegs book, so who really knows.
keep up the good work and post some more pics.
