File Fit Rings are to Include.. Napier Seconds...Right?
already screwed up one ring because i assumed it was oversized [+.005] like the package says. checked the others and they are right at the gap i need -.0001/2
that seems.. odd.. to me
[Total Seal AP ring set with Napier Second]
is that normal..?
yep, the whole 2nd ring set is fubar. even without filing i got over a 014 gap
looks like ill be calling them monday.. :sigh:

btw, these are the second rings, not the top rings (those are set at .018 may go to .022 so i can put some boost on it later). for everything but nitrous, T/S recommend bore X .0035 on the second ring.

That's wierd that they recomend a smaller 2nd ring gap- but thier website tech page is confusing in general. ha ha
Usually the second ring runs a wider gap to combat first ring flutter. The general rule of thumb I have always followed for N/A is bore x .004 for the 1st ring and bore x .005 for the second ring.
So you should be running a .016-.017 on the 1st ring and .020-.021 on the 2nd.
