Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm cylinder bore condition and piston groove measurements before assembly. Because this is not a file-fit ring set, ring end gaps should be checked against the engine builder’s specifications rather than adjusted by filing. Match the ring set to the exact engine code and verify the vehicle application before installation. For best results, follow the service manual for ring orientation, gap placement, and break-in procedure.
