I have a stupid question, because I think i screwed up a set of brand new OEM rings.

I want to run 25+ PSI, so I gapped my rings to .020". Was it suppose to be MM??
 
I dont beleive its supposed to be MM. Inch is what they go by. And what rings did you gap at .020? First and second or just the first? Ideally you want the gap to be bigger on the 2nd ring by like .005-.007'' from what ive read on numerous forums and in a performance engine book that ive read.
 
the only rings i've done so far is the first.

I was looking at a few threads and saw they were talking about .02 mm and I though I screwd them up.
