Ring Gap

Just want to verify ring gap. I’m re-ringing a stock piston no rebore.

I am reading .004” per inch of piston diameter. Also a range of 012-016” which is approximately the same.

Any help appreciated.

Stock ring end gap specification is .012" t .018" with a wear limit of .039".

Keep in mind that for every .001" increase in bore diameter your end gap will increase about .003", so if your bore is worn .001" oversize your end gap will increase about .003".
