Over budget 318 build

I never saw that the first time around. :thankyou: Also I called UEM to make sure my measurements were correct. They said .030 is the minimum so I can even take it a couple thousands more. I think Ill shoot for .031-.032. The second ring does have end gap of .005 per inch of bore min for a boosted engine. So with my 3.94 bore x .005 I get .0197 minimum. So shooting for .020 works for me!

Ok so I have the top rings all gaped to .032 other than one. It ended up .033. I think it’ll be fine. However I checked my second ring gap and they are all reading .023 on the passenger side and .024 (tight but does fit in) on the driver side. Now what? Or will this be ok? How much of a difference would it make being the second ring and it calls for .019 minimum?
