In Reply to: Rebuild question posted by Mike on Saturday, January 05, 2008:
who's going to do the work? unless it's your profession or you're at least very good, i'd suggest an automotive machine shop. you won't have any problems with oversize but, if you use a piston and sleeve kit (matched/finished) you can bring it right back to standard and have it as original. it's up to you, they make the kits both ways (thick or thin sleeve). do the lower engine (block) and the head correctly and you'll be fine. what i would suggest you NOT do is remove the sleeves, install oversize pistons and run them right against the block. PS always go with a new oil and water pump.
