Quote: A lot of engine builders now are running the second ring gap at a couple thou larger than the top ring gap to reduce ring flutter... if it got past the top ring you dont want to hold it back and cause any flutter to both rings.... this is what I've been doing for some time now
that makes sense
have you noticed any differences since you started doing this?
I cant say for fact due to I dont dyno my engines and usually it isnt quite the same set up
I was thinking more of a difference in the wear and tear on the rings and grooves/lands.
you shouldnt see any difference in the land, its still riding on a flat surface(ring riding on lands)
