boring a 262 .060 over
-
Is there any issues I need to be made aware of if I bore a 53 262 over .060? Number 6 needs to be sleeved due to water setting in the cylinder for years. The pistons are nos sterling .060 and reasonable cost for a full set.

My 308 is .060 over, not too unusual. Engine might run a tad hotter. Have a good radiator and cooling system, add some Water Wetter to the cooling system. When I rebuilt the engine in 91 the #4 was scored due to someone in past boring out the cylinders .010 but using standard pistons.
