I am working on my spare 6 bolt block I got with the car. It was fully together and I decide to take it apart and check everything. I was wondering if some one could help me with piston to wall clearance and also help with the ring gaps. I am planning on running around 20-21 psi on this motor I want to max out my 16g. Also what is the recommended bearing clearances sorry for the noob questions just don't wanna have to pull the motor again. Reason I'm also asking is because I got to put it in ASAP because we did a compression check on mine today and cylender 4 had 140...cylender 3 was 110 cylender 2 was 82 and cylender 1 was 110
 
That's the who thing the block was assembled when I got it and I don't have any idea what rings they used
 
Seeing Wiseco website I think you can get the information there as far as ring gap clearance. That being said you gotta discuss with your machine shop. When you decide on your setup, hardware included, show them the prescribed tolerances.
This may mean Nothing to you cong from a Newb but I prefer shops that employ torque plates. If they don't use them or know what they are I go elsewhere. They're a must for me.
