    When I redid my 82 Katana 1000 motor, I just used wide nylon zip ties as ring compressors. Blocked up the two inside cylinders with short pieces of 2x2 lumber, seated the pistons, then rotated motor/lowered jugs onto the outer two pistons. Worked like a charm and the zip ties just cut off with a pair of dykes after the rings were up into the cylinders.... Whole job only took about a half hour.

    At any rate, seems you got it together ok!
    The wide zip ties used for duct work is what I've used in the past with good results.
