I finally got the rusty ass strut towers all patched up. Now all I need to do is grind down the weld spatter, and paint it. I also got the new oem piston rings put on my pistons. Anyone know where the gap is supposed to go for each ring? And can anyone confirm that the cut part of the second ring faces up? That's how I understood it to work, so that's how I put them on. Just waiting on the king bearings now and then I can assemble the short block.
