Piston ring installation question
Does anyone have a good diagram of where each piston ring's end-gap should be placed in relation to one another when installing rings? Building a 355 and can't locate much material on the subject. My Vette shop manual just makes a reference to the subject but provides no details. :banghead:

Re: Piston ring installation question (ldyoung)
Compression rings go opposite each other at 180 degrees apart. The oil ring stack goes halfway between either of the top ones 90 degrees.
