hi Robert i have been through the plans and parts..they have sent 2 piston rings...but the piston drawing show 1/8 recess probably for an rubber "o" ring. Q did you receive 2 or 4 piston rings with your Kit?

[@robertbriggs8465]

The 1/8” groove is for two rings to sit together, side by side. An unusual idea which I’m not keen on so I elected to machine two separate grooves per piston. Have a look at my video on machining the pistons. Btw I received 4 rings for 2 pistons Regards

I could live without the music. I'd prefer some voice-over comments, noting the salient point of fixturing or machining.
