pitbull2424 Posted December 23, 2019 Report Share Posted December 23, 2019 What up guys Thanks for all the info on this site always have found what I needed. I am in need of some help that I can not find a clear answer . So I took my motor apart to put in an override. I decided to look in my cylinders for an inspection I noticed that my cylinders had Some aluminum deposit on the nickasil. so I decided to Scotch-Brite it out to see the cross hatches which are slightly their motor always ran really strong I was wondering if anybody could give me some info on what I should do. I took measurements and this is what I have on top of cylinder is 2.677 bottom is 2.677 top of piston is 2.66 bottom is 2.670 ring gap is about .020 I was thinking of putting it back Together but I don’t know if I messed up by removing the aluminum from the nickasil will my ring still seat good or should I get new rings or new pistons and rings. Any info will be appreciated thanks . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

registered user Posted December 25, 2019 Report Share Posted December 25, 2019 first off u measure near the piston bottom and its usually alot more than 1thou bigger than the top. if your numbers r correct , which i have my doubts, u have 7thou piston clearance which is a bit on the high side. 20thou ring gap is a bit high also. new stuff would b around 3thou clearance and 12thou gap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trickedcarbine Posted December 28, 2019 Report Share Posted December 28, 2019 Can’t hurt to toss some fresh rings at it while you’re in there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
