I am building my first engine (383 LT1) and made a mistake when gaping my piston rings. I will be running a 150 shot and planned for a .024" top ring gap and .026" second ring gap but filed two of the second rings too big. One is about .030 and the other .032". All others are spot on.

Do you think the two larger second rings will have much of an impact and should I order new ones? For reference, this is mainly going to be a fun street car with occasional nitrous.

Thanks

 

Run them. You'll never know.

 

I wouldn't be too concerned about it.

Thanks,
Garrett
