so no one knows what the gaps were for the rings? I know some of you actually built your own engine, or hope so.

anyone?

I know Phlatcav has the same question a while back before he sold the silver cav. I remember reading the thread about it and keeping it mind for when start building.

Try doing a search. I know its here.

Is that for the 2.0L SC motor? If so, you're going to need to scale those nubers with bore size.

I would open the gaps up a little for ANY boosted motor. Seeing as those are aftermarket forged pistons, I'd go with the manufacturer's recomendations.
