★ This piston set is intended for engine rebuilds where standard sizes are no longer sufficient. When overhauling older engines, it is often necessary to bore cylinders oversize to remove wear.
Application
Intended for 6-cylinder engines where cylinders have been bored 0.050" (1.27 mm) oversize during engine rebuild. This is a common oversize for first-time engine overhauls. For application details and compatibility with your specific engine type, we advise making contact.
Installation notes
Cylinders must be professionally bored and honed to exactly +0.050" oversize. Piston pins must be correctly assembled according to manufacturer specifications. Check piston-to-cylinder clearance according to engine manual (typically 0.003"-0.005"). Use engine assembly lubricant during assembly. Have the rebuild carried out by an experienced engine rebuilder.
Compatibility
Only suitable for engines where cylinders have been bored oversize. NOT compatible with standard sizes or other oversize specifications (.020",.030",.040",.060"). Check carefully the actual bore of your cylinder block before ordering — incorrect size cannot be fitted.
Historical context
Oversize pistons were a standard repair solution for engines from the 1940s onwards. Boring cylinders to oversize dimensions made it possible to reuse engine blocks rather than replace them, an economic necessity during and after WWII.
