Ring temper
#2
The Clinton E65 piston also has 3 rings.
I don't like leaving an empty groove either, so I heated one ring until it was red hot and it lost it's temper.
I had an old cylinder that held the ring while I used a propane torch to heat it.
Thanks for reminding me to do this on my next engine!
