Rather than relying on the piston skirt to locate the pistons as they're being inserted into the block like one piece tapered ring compressors currently on the market, the new BTR ring compressors have a small but very important reverse chamfer at the bottom that fits into the chamfer at the top of the block which serves two functions. First, it locates the ring compressor exactly over the center of the hole. And, secondly, it reduces the chance of the oil ring getting caught between the ring compressor and the top of the block. The lazer etching on a black background is easy to read and looks good even after lots of uses. In our beta testing against competitors tapered ring compressors, the BTR was easier to use and never caught a oil ring between the compressor and the block.

Only way to go for installing pistons. With this style you have much less chance of damaging the rings compared to typical crank tight style compressors. Lower portion of tool actually sits down into bore chamfer, eliminating your rings from catching on the deck surface.
