TIP - Fitting Centering Rings


Sometimes the centering rings supplied in a kit are loose in the body tubes.
You know it won't take much for a better fit.

You can build up inside or outside diameters with fillets of glue.

I've added a thin glue fillet to the inside edge of a centering ring.
Sometimes you may have to do another built up glue ring for the best fit.
Let it dry and you should have a good friction fit.






Thrust Rings (or engine blocks) can get the same treatment for a better fit.
