I don't know if this could or would happen, but this could actually be a brilliant inexpensive solution for people trying to find a gapless ring solution to rebuild an XFi motor...That's really what this thread is about - sourcing a cheap gapless solution. When I made the thread, I was thinking totalseal was the only remaining solution. The jury is still out.

I might be inclined to try it as a last resort, but not as the first attempt, for sure.

I'm not sure how well it would work, but I think before expecting any sort of performance, I'd look for a sealant that would work between the two rings and hold them together after they've been installed.

Chances are, it's a moot point, as I'm sure that two of the thinner rings stacked will be too big.
