[QUOTE="nccatfisher, post: 451225, member: 10811"] Well, if your measurements I remember are all correct I believe you would be good to go. I remember asking if you had a dial bore indicator and you said no, but how did you check for out of roundness? I do remember that your pistons were out of spec. Also, you will have to deglaze those walls, you need to be measuring after you do that to get a good final number if you are planning on rebuilding back stock bore. I am no expert but it the bore is in specs. I see no reason why not. BUT, I am no expert on these old motors. Pappy may know something or some reason they didn't do well without boring. [/QUOTE]
