I've been using these cylinders since 1999, ... They are amazing!
Curious as to what skirt clearance and ring gaps you used? did you set ring gaps both at cold and hot temps?? did you use a low tension ring? I'd imagine since those are 95s that you used a Porsche ring pack for Nikisil.
Building an engine with these cylinders is quite a bit different than anything else most people have experienced.. I have ran as little as .00075 skirt clearance with these cylinders and rings gaps as tight as .005 on a 4.137" bore measured at 68*F.... AMAZING!
Oil consumption will now be non-existent!
