    What are you measuring the ring end gap (in the cylinder) or something else. Walt would know for sure but that seems on the tight side to me.

    Earl,

    .002" is the right clearance for a 144(58 mm) piston. Your ring end gap should be at least .009". Most I have checked are in the .011-.012" range. When you are checking the piston clearance you want to measure about 1/4" below the bottom of the wrist pin hole. FYI
