typically common practice is to make your top ring gap smaller than the bottom. This is usually what the old school small/big block guys do.
I made the gap on my top ring larger than the bottom ring. I use J.E. pistons but I found this "suggestion" in an Arias article. the idea behind this is to keep the bottom ring seated durring combustion instead of the top ring holding all of the pressure and the bottom ring seeing little compared to the top.
what do YOU think? yes you!
