It always seems a miracle the way rings and pistons function on the merest trace of oil.esp those cars which consume none at all.
There is no risk of Seven bores running dry!
Some 1950s cars were supplied without the lower ring . It could be fitted later from below. (Minx)
It was always advised not to fit steel 4 piece rings in the lower groove
I vaguely recall a picture of Merlin engine with lower oil rings (used vast amount anyway)
