    Default 3TC Piston End Gap

    I'm installing 1.5mm oversize pistons into a 3TC. The brand is Endurotec, PTO3T40603E. The piston rings I've got are TP 3flex ring set 4G63 chrome, M-85.00-1.50-1.5-1.5-4. The piston ring end gap size is not given in the packaging. Just general installation procedure on the piston ring box.

    Does anyone know what the correct piston ring end gap is? I do have a 3TC repair manual with the end gap for 2T and 3T but I assume that's for the standard bore of 85mm.
