gdizzle Posted March 27, 2007 Report Share Posted March 27, 2007 Looks great! So you went w/ OS2 pisons? Why did you do that, just curious? Were your cly walls eliptical/out of round? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marlboroman Posted March 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2007 The reason i went with owersize pistons is that the stock ones were in so bad condition that they couldn't be used again. I had plans on using stock bore, but i ended up using +0,4 pistons. Since it needed to be honed anyway i figured i could bore it at instead.
