Why, did you fry your piston rings and now you and the mad scientist have to sit down and rip apart the whole block!?!? Sorry, I had to. It was too easy.[IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]

You had to install new rings? How long did it take? Do any performance mods while you were in there? By the way, if you ripped the block apart, I hope you got it all welded back together. Blocks are a one piece casting.

Best way to be 100% positive is to use a digital calibrator to get your bore size.

Right right. Never thought of it that way. Moronic writers!

Anyway, I have no clue. I wish I did. Although I need turbo pistons for our cars along with thicker piston rings to help seal better. I'll do the research later though when I'm running at 8psi and I want to crank up the boost.

Hasn't started yet. I need money first. Before money I need a job. Before a job I need to finish college. Two extra classes that I needed to take crept up on me, so I couldn't graduate now. Kinda sucks. I'll be graduating in May instead. It'll be a while before I have the money for the parts. I'm getting a job now though so that I can pay for some of the other modifications I have in mind. Did you see the Turbo DIY? It's linked in my sig. I kinda started a generic one a while back. There's much more to write in there though, but I'm busy and I haven't updated it in a while.
