Hi Mates,
Been a while since I was here, hope you guys all doing great.
I have been busy but working on the landy's engine between other projects.
I have bored out the block to 40 thou, bought a set of All Makes pistons and rings.
I have been looking up the ring gap orientation, some saying to use 60 degree, some 120 degree separation away from the thrust side of the pistion.
We went with 60 degree for the two top rings, I am assuming that the oil ring gap has to be away from the trust side too, can you guys confirm please?
I know it sounds like a redundant question due to the fact that 60 degrees apart would keep us away from the thrust side, but just wanted to ensure that the oil ring must be away from the trust side too.
Thanks and Cheers.
