Hey Guys,

what are the I.D. measurments of stock cylinders?

I am getting ready to rebuild my 2.0 and the cylinders that are on it measure right under 96mm I.D..
Is this stock cylinders?

The pistons in the engine are dished so I'm almost sure they are stock, but there are no markings on top like type 1 pistons.

My thinking is that for 94mm stock pistons the cylinder would be a little larger right?

I want to go to 96mm P/C for addred performance.

What does it cost to have the stock cylinders bored for 96mm pistons? and who does this?

The guy I bought the engine from did say that the engine was upgraded to 2.? years ago.

I measured the I.D. right at the top of the cylinder.

Did they make dished 96mm pistons?

The reason I am even looking at a rebuild is because when I turn the flywheel by hand I can feel a little play that feels like maybe a rod bearing and the flywheel also travels out some as I turn it so it makes the little bit of play feel worse.

This is not normal is it?

If it is I may just hone the cylinders, replace the rings and throw this thing back together.

I've seen dished 96mm pistons supposedly for bus use.
