Hey, I have a question for the engine guys out there...
I tore my engine down this past weekend and I'm trying to decide what to do with my top end. Also, I relocated to another state recently and I'm shopping around for a good machine shop at the moment. So, I would like to get some opinions here before I take it in.
Piston skirt OD: 66.85mm and 66.96mm
Cyl. bore OD: 67.00mm for both
I measured the piston skirts directly @ the bottom of the piston and I measured the bore @ the bottom as well.
I used a standard Mitutoyo Digi caliper to take the measurements.
The pistons ring gaps were all with in spec, measured at the bottom of the bore.
Any input would be appreciated. I know the the measurements are pretty close to the service limits. If it were a perfect world I would replace everything oversized and bore, but as usual, money is tight.
