Nope.....the tapered ring compressor has a split side and will accommodate std.-.060......

  I must add, after completing my 65th engine (I have a "Corvairs Only" shop, thus the numbers)....that I love the tapered ring compressor sold by "Total Seal Rings"....in fact, I love the Total Seal" ring. This little device allows you to almost push the rings and piston into the barrel with finger pressure, and avoids the chance of ring breakage which presents itself with other devices requiring higher compression of the device

Find your size here: http://www.totalseal.com/Tools.aspx
Then choose "non adjustable ring compressors" in the drop down. 

Cool!  If you have a "Corvair" Shop, like Mike, you probably need a few sizes. If you only build, say .030 over, looking good!
