    I got the cylinders back from the dealer's and they apprently are in perfect condition. The numbers are well within spec. So I removed the rings so that I can check the free end length as well as the gap when inside the cylinder. All rings end gaps were well within specs however there were a couple that had a free end gap that was a bit bigger than spec ( 9.5mm vs. 9mm). Is this cause for concern?

      Having larger free end gap is ok (having numbers smaller than spec is the problem there) AFAIK, The most important is the ring end gap as measured when in the cylinder.
