Just tell them to follow your rings and piston's datasheet?

Doesn't somebody make solid rings ? I thought I saw that somewhere. Wouldn't they be best for boost? Just asking . I don't know much about boost.

Gapless rings are a joke. Just make sure there is extra room. Too much end gap is not the end of the world. To little will cost you the motor. We have run up to .080 ring gap with no issues, although this was a special circumstance not for your application but it is a good example.
