scottfromiowa Posted April 28, 2011 Report Share Posted April 28, 2011 My engine was overhauled 400+ hours ago. I went with oversizing/Steel. Wondering what others did/have done/are planning to do and how your cylinders are doing post overhaul. I have read that oversizing is NOT the way to go, so wanted others experience/input. So far so good for me... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N33GG Posted April 28, 2011 Report Share Posted April 28, 2011 As inexpensive (relatively speaking) as the new OEM cylinder assemblies are, I have the old ones dropped in the trash can and new ones put on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hank Posted April 28, 2011 Report Share Posted April 28, 2011 Ah, the blessings and comfort of an O-360. Also provides the magical ability to ignore the recurring and lengthy ROP v LOP debates . . . :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottfromiowa Posted April 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2011 Thanks Mike. At the time to replace with new vs. overhaul/oversize was about $3 AMU's. I have since thought I was foolish not to pay for new...time will tell. That was a great deal you got there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
