On the other 6 pistons the end gaps for the 1st and 2nd rings were approx 1/3 the way around the piston apart which is what I have usually found on the stock motors..... I would say someone screwed the pooch on the other 2 when assembling the motor..... I have never seen them inline like that on a factory assembled motor.....
