This size list is for reference only.

Cylinders are bored based off the actual piston measurement using a micrometer and bore gauge. This measurement should be taken by the machine shop that is doing the work.

Pistons are measured at the bottom of the skirt perpendicular to the wrist pin (this is its largest diametrical dimension). The measurement should be taken 1/2 inch from the bottom on the thrust face of the skirt. You might notice pistons are slightly out of round and tapered near the crown. This is to account for expansion of material in the crown and that supports the wrist pin.
