did you measure your cylinders and bores? did you check ring gap?

it can, and it can ruin the rings. Did you install new rings?I f you didn't, then you somehow got pistons mixed up, which means now's the time to put new rings, were the cylinders honed? Be sure to gap rings relative to each cylinder they will go into. The ring manufacturer should have specs to use for that.
