There is a post below about rings. Last few years, I have talked to a few cracker jack engine guys. Some of them can measure to the 0.0001. If the guy has a gas(not diesel) engine they are putting in over size rings in and grinding off enough material for a good ring gap. Naturally the ridge in top of the block is taken off. Also, the piston can not have so much wear that it will slap. Cylinders are ball honed with a coarse grit ball hone(can not remember the grit), This would be for engines where not a lot of hours are put on the machine. I did this once on my old Case 530 backhoe. It was about 4 years ago and the engine has a little over 450 hours on it now and no problems. Would any of you guys do this on a lower value machine? Forgot, put bearings in it they are cheap and I ground the valves,knurled the guides, used Chevy umbrella valve seals, and lapped the valves.
