68468, Which pistons to buy?????????
Posted by spoolinfoo, Apr-05-04 10:50 AM
My car blew the ring lands on cyliders 1 and 4. I have it torn down and I need to know which pistons do not require an over-bore(if there is any). I know JE says .20 over-bore. Any advice will really help me out because I want to order the new pistons ASAP my car is dead and needs some life put back in it.

You can get stock sized pistons but you might as well have it bored out and throw some lower compression pistons in there.

its stupid to go standard bore. just throw the like 100 buck to get the block bored and cleaned. then get some cp pistons.

Go twenty over with some CP Forged pistons. You will never get a good seal with stock bore pistons.
