I am going .030 on the one cylinder, and install new std to .010 rings on the rest.
It might work, as Its a 6.2 diesle , @ 2200 rpms, not a 350 @ 5000 rpms, I can buy running 6.2 for the price of pistons and rings. Worst case is in 5 years at 25,000k the motor is seized.
Then I can bolt in a replacement, right now, I need a running power train to swap with. The tranny and transfer case are ready to go, I hope.
I will take the block to a machine shop,
for the bore, unless some one can convince me that 30.00 bucks is robbery. It's $200.00 for all 8, but the price of new pistons and rings.
I have alot of other expenses, to look at. Big wheels, lift, exo skeleton, turbo maybe. Arb lockers, maybe 4:11 Dana 60s.
I am guessing the 3:73 gears are going to match up well with the diesels lower RPMS.
The motor,trany,t case, in the jeep are for SALE, also to help fund the project.
