ring clearance on cylinder walls
« on: April 30, 2015, 04:26:04 pm »
My machine shop guy asked me "what is the ring to cylinder wall clearance measurement?" (he is a performance auto engine bldr. not a small engine guy) I can't find anything in my manual for this. does the ring gap and cross hatching resolve this question? or is there a real measurement? thanks
