Hello, thank you for the video, well done. I am actually installing pistons on a ford 289. The sliding effort of the piston in the cylinder seemed very important to me, but I have the impression that in your video, this is also the case. Can you tell me if I should be worried about this? My ring end gaps are between 0.017 and 0.023" (Sealed Power - E251K... seems to be the same as yours).
If you are doing a mostly stock rebuild I would think that should be just fine. you can double check your rebuild manual, or you can also consult with sealed power, they may give alternate end gaps depending on your type of rebuild. Thanks for watching.
