Default D15b2 piston ring clearnance question.

Good morning everyone, I am currently working on a d15b2 and was wondering if anyone knew the specs for clearance on the rings. Have been looking everyone and found only one source, so just to make sure id rather ask you guys for some info before i even decide to proceed with installing the rings ect ect.

The OEM specs are as follows:

First ring: .20-.35 mm
Second ring: .40-.55 mm
Oil ring: .20-.50 mm


That's all I could find. Seems like you just want to file them enough so there is a little bit of room between the ends.
