So I got these AA's with a car about 10 years ago. Looks like they were mocked up but never ran.

In an effort to get my long stalled project back on the road I pulled the heads & cyl from the original tired 1.7

I have included the original condition before I cleaned up the rough edged with a little emery work

Doesn't overlap with the piston travel and I'm building another motor so this doesn't need to last forever, and I'm cheep and don't want to buy another set of 96's for this tired old gal.

What do you (experts) think???

Thanks folks!

There was a time in my life when i would not have hesitated to use that cylinder.

Heck, in my dirt bike racing days, i even "fixed" a burnt through hole on top of the piston (running lean on purpose) by putting a round top carriage bolt though the hole and double nutting the back. Worked like a charm.
