I just spoke to Ken at Hensley. He agreed that the wider second ring gaps are not an ideal scenario. He also said that many "Off the shelf" rings may have the same size gaps as the ones I filed too big, but they would be sized the same throughout the entire set unlike mine where 6 are one size and 2 are larger. The advantages of file to fit sets are that they allow the builder to custom fit the rings to fit the bores. This is a practice that used to be referred to as "Blueprinting". He suggested that since I am taking the time to build this engine right, it makes sense to make everything consistant. He is going to look into finding a pair of replacement rings for me.
