I've always
        just checked the piston oversize number (stamped on the crown of the
piston) then ordered that size.  I have, out of paranoia, always checked
end gap before intstalling, just to be sure.  They've always been within
a thou or three...  
        Are Total Seal rings available for the roadster?  If so, they'd be no
more expensive than Nissan rings, and they do seal a bit better.
