I'm kinda from the train of thought "bore only as needed" although I have not seen a split cylinder wall. You can get good pistons in .010 over increments and my block got clean with a .010 over at 4.065. I havent seen anyone go past .030-.035 over without sleeves though either.



I'm looking at a 05 5.7 thats a running engine so I
would think .010 will clean it up... so there isnt
any problem with running a 6.1 crank in a 5.7 and
using the 6.1 wheel... how about rods.. I will want
something better than a powered rod.. what length
would that end up being
thanks for the help
