Bit off topic, but the top compression ring looks like an oil scraper here (with spring)

Hi proffighter
It look like it has a oil scraper in the top ring. Is the original 930 have that device?

Oil rings have the spring in them. If those rings are shrink wrapped onto that cardboard showing it as the top ring it looks like a mistake or something.

I would call Don at Porsche Racing Parts : Engine Performance Parts : Brake Parts : Used Porsche 356 : 911 : 912 : 914 : 944 : Porsche Boxster Parts : EBS Racing Inc. (800) 462-3774, they sell rings individually and go from there.

Individual rings might need to have the end gaps filed for the correct ring gap so that should be checked.
It might be best to sell those and buy a complete set of rings.
EBS gives good advice.

Definitely wrong. Scraper is always the lowest ring. Here is an example, which ring is where. Principe is always same, design can differ. Normally every ring has a top mark "T" or so, which faces to the top.

They are sometimes marked to as I , II and III (top to bottom)
