Default Ring gaps

Things are starting to come together.

Checked the gap on the SP no-file rings ... I'm getting .016 - .0165" on the compression rings. (.040" over 400 ci) too tight? (noticed the service manual mentions .020" +/- .010" that seems a bit whacky)

Deck height looks like .006" ... was shooting for .005

Piston dish 11.2 cc
Chambers 72cc (with OEM valves)

Looks like I'll be about 9.9:1 at this point .... will I gain a couple of cc's with new valves??

So far so good.
