.Heh... not what Honda or any other ring/piston manufacturer suggests, but ok...
Your helms manual should be able to help you in this matter...
The should be approximately 15 degrees off from each other... They shouldnt be directly at above the wrist pins or perpendicular to them... This will help minimize scarring and maximize effectiveness... Please reference the helms manual before trying anything like this as it seems like a disaster waiting to happen...
