Dude, everybody knows that the JE forged pistons are .020 (or .20?) over stock... if they weren't, they wouldn't fit, due to wear on the block. If you can even FIND stock bore JE pistons, you'll likely leak oil past your new rings because of the fact that cast stockers and forged pistons react differently under heat. The forged pistons expand more than the cast ones, and if you go with stock bore, at low temps, after honing your block, you'll certainly burn oil.
All that aside, i wouldn't blame Hahn. It's your own fault for not doing better research before sinking the cash into it. Personally, i would have gone ahead with the boring and used the forged pistons. Just my $.02, but anyone feel free to correct me if i'm wrong about the piston thing.
-DarkOne I'm so bad, i should be in detention.
