IMP, the sad thing is i have a good set of micrometers that is how i realized the piston was too small when i took it back out. I am very disappointed in myself for not taking the time to measure. and by 50mm i did mean .50mm which turns out to be .020 in oversize.
Number4, My experience is mostly with 2 & 4 stroke motocross engines and normally a quick hone is all that is needed to bring a cylinder back to life as long as there was no catastrophic failure. but that is no excuse i should have miked the cylinder anyway.
I appreciate hearing from a BIG man! I have spent a lifetime making mistakes, and try to admit to the consequences, as you just did. Good for you! imp
