I would just go the next size up from what you have to save room for more rebuilds later. Get a nice set of high performance pistons and you'll be good to go.

yeah go next size up. only get forged pistons because cast crumble after a year of hard running. vertex and namura are cast. wieseco and i think vetoes are and stock are forged.

try having someone sand blast the head and if it doesn't look to bad it will work.

and if you bore the cylinders it won't give you as much power as you think it will.
