I measured my rings from this site and they were good. Just to be sure, drop the ring into the cylinder and run it down with the piston so it sits in the cylider evenly. Pull the piston out and with the ring abou an inch down, measure your end gap. I did my engine about two years ago or about 71.4 hours according to the hour meter I hooked in. The supplier might have changed since I did mine so double check it to be sure. If the ring gap is too tight you can bust off the top piston ring land, score the cylinder and crack the sleeve. Are you in that much of a hurry?
