★ Rebuild component for restoring engine blocks with cylinder reboring. During an engine rebuild, cylinders are typically rebored to.020",.030",.040" or.060" oversize depending on cylinder wear.
Application
For rebuilding 230 cubic inch (3.8L) inline six flathead engines. Standard bore 3 1/4 inch (82.55 mm), at.030" oversize this becomes 3.280 inch (83.31 mm)..030" oversize is a common rebuild size for moderate cylinder wear.
Installation notes
Engine block must be professionally rebored to exact.030" oversize. Piston-to-cylinder clearance must be correctly measured and set according to manufacturer specifications. Piston pins must be correctly installed, type may vary between semi-floating and full-floating depending on connecting rod design. Entrust assembly to an experienced engine rebuilder.
Compatibility
Important: oversize pistons can ONLY be used in rebored engine blocks. Not compatible with standard bore. Check whether the engine block is suitable for.030" reboring — with excessive wear or previously rebored blocks, a larger oversize (.040" or.060") or sleeving may be necessary.
Historical context
Oversize pistons were standard rebuild parts during and after WWII for extending the service life of military vehicle engines..030" oversize was often the first rebuild step with normal cylinder wear.
