I have KB 232's in a .030 over bore. Now I'm starting to get confused, most likely because I'm reading too much into this. So I was told to use the formula of 4x4.000 for a standard four inch bore, or for my situation, 4 x 4.030 to determine the desired ring gap as the top ring sits inside the bore.
When I place that ring inside the bore, it sits at .0020, if I remember correctly. I can certainly go back and check all of those rings, too, though. So if I read this chart on Keith Black's webpage, anything from .0015" - .0020" for a normally asiprated engine with a bore size up to 4.100" is what you're going for, right?
It certainly doesn't seem like I want to file down or grind down the ends of the ring by any means because it'll just increase that size past .0020"?
