  • Dot and bevel direction for piston rings on 45" Harley flathead question

    I am installing new pistons and rings in my 1956 G Harley flathead motor. Rings from Eastern are #H-4244-030, I believe Hastings rings. The oil ring is the one-piece ring. Two upper rings appear to be identical with dot and interior bevel on same side as dot. Do the dots face up on both 1st and 2nd rings. That would make both inside bevels face upward also. No instructions included with rings, and I cannot find answer on Hastings tech page. Cannot call Hastings tech since I need to install the rings this weekend. Thanks.

    Yes, they do. And end gaps staggered too.
