He said it was bored to 4.098, if that were true the bore would be 4.106
The short stick is .008" ptwc is what they set the clearance up for.. And it's too loose for what I'm doing and how I use it. Piston/bore diameters be damned, .008" ptwc it too loose.
Big power forged pistons sure I'll run that clearance
Under 500hp absolutely not. Put 100-150,000 miles on it and it will eat oil like crazy, not too mention rings will probably never fully seat, compounding the oil consumption issue.. Furthermore, Knowing I'll put those miles down before I get ontop of financial things and have cash to build another short block(~$5000.00 to duplicate the short block I got now) It just doesn't seam smart.
