the shop honing my ~10k mile old 96mm cylinders is telling me the brand new pistons are going to be loose in the cylinders! WTF, the original KB set of p/c's is what was in the original engine. I've been planning re-honing the cylinders and using a new set of KB pisons w/new rings...

WHY does God hate me? Is boring out 93mm or 94mm pistons & maatching them up to the pistons the only way to go?

HELP!!!
