    That was exactly what I was always told never to do. Obviously you haven't had any issues doing it that way.

    Ah OK! Basically gaps all go inline with the crank, 180 degrees of each other.

    Thanks!

    Also @ AModelCat if it isn't to late check ring gap in liners before you stick them on pistons. And if you don't already know, there is a top side of rings when you put them on pistons. New rings will have top marked on them you can see if yer eyesight is good.

    They came pre-assembled from CAT. Wouldn't be hard to take them off and check before dropping them in.
