Im starting re-assembly and im a bit stumped with the gap clearances. This is my first rebuild so im a bit fearful and inexperienced with this thing. First question is...do you still have to measure the gap of the rings even though they are 'gapless'? I measured the gaps on the first and second rings of cylinder/piston #4 and i got .025 for top and .0315 for the second. I looked on the hayes manual and the clearances are of aprox. .011-.012...but i guess those are for regular rings and not the gapless. Here's the basic background info on the block:
block bored .020 over
.020 over Sealed Power pistons
total seal gapless rings.
Hope you guys can help me out. Thanx!
