Dont do it they wont be round, you need standard rings

Many thanks Guys for your input, wasn’t keen on the expense of a rebore (negative equity come to mind)as there wasn’t  any wear in the bore, perhaps go back to standard, it’s no show pony and won’t be commuting, Thankyou again...

If you think there is no significant bore wear and you try a new ring,  the gap may be in tolerance ... which should be OK. 6 thou is the absolute minimum for a perfect bore and new ring.

Ash , I can see your point , “ But ,“ to try your a standard ring means they very expensive £70 genuine  ,for a just a try to engine out every time  , it was just a thought from the forum ,I have heard a few competition  lads have tried it. I’m from the West Country and are very frugal here 😎, Thankyou all again from your input

Bryanj:
Its a sall bore and when you compress the ringextrait goes out of round, if it was a 3" Ford bore it would be a lot less noticable
