1. Engine Block (score: 1): Author: Mike Pisani <mpisani099@yahoo.com>; Date: Wed, 23 Aug 2006 13:59:57 -0700 (PDT); Hi all, I started an engine rebuild on a '69 TR6. The block was bored out to .030 over years ago. And now my machine shop is telling me that it needs another boring out, preferably another .030 over.; /html/6pack/2006-08/msg00148.html (6,963 bytes)
2. RE: Engine Block (score: 1): Author: "Navarrette, Vance" <vance.navarrette@intel.com>; Date: Wed, 23 Aug 2006 16:41:04 -0700; Be careful when talking to machinists. I am convinced that they will be too conservative in most cases which ends up costing you money because you are afraid to say no to any recommendations they ma; /html/6pack/2006-08/msg00150.html (8,548 bytes)
3. RE: Engine Block (score: 1): Author: "Navarrette, Vance" <vance.navarrette@intel.com>; Date: Wed, 23 Aug 2006 16:44:03 -0700; My bad. BPNW offers pistons in 0.030", 0.040" or 0.060" oversize, but NOT 0.050" over. Sorry for the flub. Vance Mike: Be careful when talking to machinists.

Also I have a Austin-Healey that is .060 bored and it does just fine. Good luck, Gary Fuqua Branson, MO; /html/6pack/2006-08/msg00152.html (6,748 bytes)
5. Re: Engine Block (score: 1): Author: "Robert M. Lang" <lang@isis.mit.edu>; Date: Thu, 24 Aug 2006 08:13:54 -0400 (EDT); It's because the machinist doesn't know how to do that job. A well equipped shop can do a TR6 re-sleeve. But it's usually cheaper to replace the block. So, based on COST, the re-sleeve may be impract; /html/6pack/2006-08/msg00153.html (7,538 bytes)
6. RE: Engine Block (score: 1): Author: "Navarrette, Vance" <vance.navarrette@intel.com>; Date: Thu, 24 Aug 2006 07:46:48 -0700; A 0.060" overbore is just fine for street usage, and will eke out a little more displacement and a couple more horsepower. The only drawback is that if the engine needs to be rebuilt again, you must; /html/6pack/2006-08/msg00154.html (8,101 bytes)

RE: Engine Block (score: 1): Author: "McMaster, John" <JOHN.MCMASTER@act.gov.au>; Date: Fri, 25 Aug 2006 09:05:20 +1000; Another thought would be to substitute the standard (oversize) Triumph pistons with those from an E series Mazda (standard bore size). These will most certainly be chepaer than the Triumph ones and; /html/6pack/2006-08/msg00156.html (8,196 bytes)
