Sounds like you're on it! But the ring deal can be complicated. A bunch more than what you mentioned here. Your best chance of success would most likely be to deal with your piston manufacturer of choice and explain exactly what you want to accomplish and go with their advice and follow it to the letter. The top notch piston companies have a ton of R&D and feed back on what works.

I have used both Child’s & Albert gapless when they where around and Total seal and never had a issue.
As aways the needed bore prep and hood ring grooves for each type is paramount to good function. I have taken apart to SBC motors and a Buick 455 where gapless rings where installed on used cast pistons which ring groove clearance wise should have been s scrapped. These owners I can only assume where hoping a gapless ring would save them from there oil burning blowby problem.

I can't explain it all I know is what happened in my motor. Just the facts.
