lt1 ring gap with nitrous

my friend isrunning a 383 with srp forged pistons and trying to see what my ring gap should be, the motor was built last year and i just tore it down for inspection right now the ring gaps are .0025-.0028 top ring and .0030-.0032 2nd ring does this sound about right?200-250 shot.

2nd ring should ALWAYS be bigger than the top ring.
