Re: Engine Bore measuring implement

Hi Ben, I went to the Engineering place that was going to do the work and let them measure it as long as they are going to get the work they wont mind especially as most shops like to bore and hone with the replacement pistons to make sure they are a perfect fit. You need to know if it needs a bore before you can order them. HTH
