This is a question on ring gap.
For those of you that have Keith black pistons in your car.....did you gap the rings ( top compression ring)?

YES you should always gap first and second rings to what the ring manufacture recommends,it also depends on if you run NOS or blowers (they need more gap) unless you go the easy route and buy pre-gapped rings, but those always have more gap than you need and cost several horsepower.

Also I dont see how you can lose several hp just off ring gap.

I have Keith Black pistons, and Moly Rings. The rings were pregapped.
I checked the ring gaps just to be sure, and they were spot on
Hope this helps..
