The harder you run it the more gap you need.  Reason when building a v8 Chevy most companies will give you "street" "strip" "nitrous" ring gap specs.  

Ugly things happen when those ring ends touch each other

better to be slightly larger with your ring end gap than smaller.

I also like to run the bottom ring with more gap than the top ring. (It's a trapped gases thing)

Looking very close at that picture for hidden things....  :-D

Is that unit motorized or do you turn it by hand?

Nothing hidden.    It's powered.
