I know where the ring gaps for the expansion ring gaps go. But where do the top two rings go? I know where they go on OEM Honda pistons, but I also know that Wiseco pistons have different gap placements.

Please reply quick.

Bump, anyone know?

 

the ring gap positions from the OEM pistons are perfectly fine with aftermarket pistons.

Ok, so can someone tell me exactly where each ring goes, because I keep getting conflicting answers.

 

The reality is it really doesn't matter.I stagger them when I assemble them but the rings rotate in the grooves and don't stay where you put them for very long.Pressure does not care to much about line of site so you could line them all up and the engine would run just fine.

check your helms manual.....it's in there.




p.s. the rings will move around anyway.....as long as they are not in the major and minor thrust sides and not lined up with the piston pin's you are good to go.
