l28et rebuild

[Darrel]

I picked up my block from the machine shop. They only needed to hone it out .002. I bought total seal rings, the ring gap range for ea cyl is either .027 or .029. According to the book, my ring gap should be .014, total seal .014-.020. I was hoping that I would need to file the rings to the desired gap measurement.

The final bore is 3.388, stock is 3.386

The total seal rings I bought, the 2nd ring is the gapless. The top ring is conventional.

Any ideas, is this normal or should I call and get different rings?

This was a junk yard motor with unknown mileage and i just wanted to do a stock rebuild.

btw, Nissan standard rings for the turbo are NLA.

thank you
