    Well said Mike. And for thechosenone, proper rebuilding is boring it out to .010 from the beginning, now you have to go a lil higher to make sure the cylinders are perfectly round.

    yea, I did talk to yo taday Mike, and I think I am going to have to just bite the bullet like you said. What i'll have to do is get a machine shop to measure it, bore and hones it AGAIN, and then measure again, as well. Then i'll get the larger pistons and oem rings.

    I've come this far, I would hate to have done all this work, just to have the motor smoke.

    Does anyone know of a good shop close to gwinnett. I know I initially went to lawrenceville auto parts, but they had a 4 week waiting list.
