Nurse Julie:
Which bit are you reading, I can only see service limits NOT piston / bore clearance
Edit...i have put my glasses on now and can see better 🙄🙄🙄
Erwin83:
now, please correct me if I'm wrong, but I read cylinder size upon fresh install: 51,00-50,01. Piston diameter 50,97-50,99.
So 0,01-0,04 mm clearance.
I agree that temperature is more critical with less liner material. So (should no advice come with this kit), would the upper limit of the installation spec be the best way forward?
that would mean 54,50 pistons, 54,54 cylinders (EDITED).
Nurse Julie:
No, because 54.50 pistons won't fit in a 54.46 cylinder anyway. Can't advise on this Erwin as the tolerances you are referring to don't make sense really.
Erwin83:
sorry, 54,50 piston 54,54 cylinders :P

Haha, yes, they will fit but the piston / bore gap sounds huge to me. I hope the manufacturer of the kit comes up with the spec sheet / tolerances for you. I do know someone else that fitted a 466 kit ( i don't know what make) and he had to strip the engine again, fit new liners and have another rebore due to a too large gap.
