Piston to wall clearances
#5
Thanks fixkick, the measurements I provided were after I had honed the cylinders , ( hand honed) ,measured, then debated. I'm a bit of a perfectionist, and it drives me crazy if things aren't like they should be. Think I will take the block in to be bored over,let the machinist look it over and tell me what he thinks. I'll post what measurements he comes up with to compare.

I used telescoping gauges,and measured at 8 different points below the ridge. Let's take cylinder #4 measurements 75.06mm just under the ridge and tapered to 75.055mm at the bottom, all these measuremen's were taken after I gave a quick clean up of the walls with the hone. It had an out of round of .0001 in. So when I said the cylinders measured 75.05- 75.06mm that was a pretty vague thing to say,sorry, I'm still new to rebuilding engines and playing catch up
