will i need to have anything done to my cylinder before i put the 11:1 standard bore piston in?[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

no

 

you should measure to make sure it isn't out of round and need a bore job-the cylindar will at least need a hone job to allow the new rings to seat properly....only a few bucks at a machine shop.



BRAAAAAAP

 

yup just make sure you have a straight bore slick

 

i've got a ball hone to hone it with to make sure the rings fit properly.

 

what angle to do hone your cylinder at?

 

somebody said to do it at 45 degrees,does this sound right?

 

Yes that is correct. Just making sure the fellow racers are ball honing correctly.

 

explain to me how exactly to do this??

 

the way we do it (with a ball hone) is to put the cyl in a vice at a 45 degree angle with a towel wrapped around it to keep from scratching the cyl. go in through the top because often times the ***** will get hung up in the transfers. Put oil in the cylinder and on the hone like a spray lubricate ect ect and hit it as close to a 45 as possible. Make sure your cross hatches are good and basically be carefull taking too much material out.
