I figured out which ring is the top ring, now I have another question.
My machinist said to gap the rings @ .022" , but the directions that came with the pistons(KB Hypereutetic) sayes that the ring end gap factor is .0065 which means that my gap would be 4.030" X .0065" = .026"
Should I go by the gap in the instructions, or what the machinist sayes? If I gap it @.026" will the .004" make any difference in performance or reliability?
