Nice, any idea what the weight of each piston is?

I believe they're like 285grams each, don't quote me on that. They are *very* light though, I was pretty amazed.

I can't remember anyone else running into problems with a simple .020" overbore
I was also under the impression that it was routine. Oh, and that is a little extra displacement compared to murlo and me. :)

I honestly haven't heard of anyone doing a simple .020" overbore yet so I wouldn't know what to say on that. Obviously it will sacrifice some sleeve integrity, but anything worthwhile, who knows.

Got word back from Greg@GSC last night; their foundry is extra-way-backed-up so a decision has been made! Kelford 214-b's it is!
Holy crap everything is really in motion, I better get all of my secondary parts on the way stat. This thing might just go back together next weekend!

Just remember to "take your time putting it back together" :) Glad everything is working out, can't wait to see it on the road again!
