Interesting comment about oversizes, DJ.Why do you consider more that 0.060" overbore to be suspect?Are the cylinder walls getting too thin?Mine is now 0.100" over (I wish that it wasn't!) but after several thousand miles the only thing that I notice is that it runs like a top! BTW, a 0.100" overbore on a 4" bore motor corresponds to a 5% increase in compression ratio, or 4.5: 1 up to 4.73:1.My guess is that this wouldn't be noticeable in terms of performance.
