Satsol67 Posted November 5, 2006 Report Posted November 5, 2006 I am getting ready to put my top end back together and I was reading the instructions that came with my wiseco pistons. It talks about drilling 2 holes .060-.090 below the rings for lubrication. Do any of you guys do this? And if I dont do this will it be a problem? I also want to make sure the rings have the right gap. Would someone please explain how to do this? Thank you Ron Quote
Bansh-eman Posted November 5, 2006 Report Posted November 5, 2006 no do not drill the holes, if you read more that is for a differant motor... you need some many thousanths of gap per mm of bore... ifyour on a stock bore you need between .010 and .012 gap... put the ring in the cylinder and use the top of the piston to push it in flat.. get a feeler gauge and massuer the gap if youneed it biggr then what you hav get a fine file and take a vry small amount off both sides of the ring and do it again until you get the gap needed... id go with .011 gap .....
