30 over race only 360 with KB hypers. 5/64 moly top/cast 2nd. my measured 2nd ring gap is .028". will this hurt my power greatly (or so so) or am I OK as is? I could spring for another set if I need to. thank you for your time.

I run the second ring gap bigger that the top.. if it got by the top you dont want to hold it in the second and cause flutter

C&A told me to run the gapless on the second ring and the reg one at the top Different set of rings.
