Ring, Ring, Ring

The book says there should be a mark on the compression rings to show which way the TOP is.  BZZZZ, Wrong !!!!  Not on these.

So I got out the micrometer and tried to measure the taper.  I did my best and tried to find which side was consistently the smaller width to show which the narrower taper should go up.  (No one wants to pump oil into the cylinders)  I just hope the castle nuts for the big end bolts line up nicely to get the cotter pins in.

Here's the box from the rings.

Here's the box from the new cam chain.  I'm not THAT far yet with all these interruptions, but I will be soon.
