Total seal second rings or stock rings

[airstuff]

Ok,so I am assembling my first 2276cc and now I need to know should I buy Total seal second rings,or should I just keep the rings as they come with the piston set.

I have red a lot of articles on the cal-look.com,about replacing the top ring with another chrome ring for faster break in.

I know this total seal rings are about 80 bucks,and there are some vendors on Samba selling them.

Thanks

How do I remove the oil scraper piston ring,in order not to break it ?

you have to pull the very thin rings first like the other ones, then you can remove the ring with the holes...
