    Series 1 Land Rover 1.6l side valve ring installation

    Dear Fellow Enthusiasts, We're rebuilding a 1.6l side valve series 1 engine and facing issues with reassembly of the piston. The oil ring seems to snag on the bore, possibly close to the valve port on the side valve engine. Please see photos attached. Is there a solution for this? Thanks!
