Well on my way to getting back on the road
Nice fresh bores and new pistons with nicely done windows in the piston thanks to my good neighbor!
So not being a machinist nor someone who has a clue, I have to follow and take advice from others and weight the options and then live with a choice I have made based on my best ability to understand what I am being told about things.
Leaves a guy like me uneasy!!
Once the bores where measured it was found that one of them needed to go two sizes over in order to be in perfect condition, which would bring it to 72.5mm. Now the place that I get stuff bored did say he thought it would be ok at 72mm but not what they would normally like to see and believed there would be some scratches to deep to get out completely.
So I hemmed and hawed and debated and thought and looked stuff up that I can't understand, and in the end took them to Millennium Technologies which is only 50 min from me and they Nicasiled them to accept 72mm pistons.
Looking forward to getting it together!
