Discuss? I have heard of a couple engines running a slightly hotter (10 deg or so) after a fresh rebuild, but their owners and I attribute it more to new bearings and tighter clearances--not thinner bore walls. In both cases after a few hundred miles, the engine temps returned to "normal". 1969 Dodge Coronet Super Bee 383 A4 1970 Plymouth Road Runner 440 FC7 (sold)
