Believe it or not I went w/ a total seal gapless ring. We'll see how it works out. top ring is 0.032

Yes I did. I went back and forth for a long time trying to decide on my rings. I called JE and speedpro and got both of their recommended gaps and then spoke w/ my machinist before deciding on the gap I have used.

well considering thier research, and the fact that I confirmed they werent full of ****e, and the fact that you might still be using total seal type rings, my suggestion as I have pondered it would be to increase the second ring gap a bunch
