Yea Brian, they honed ,030 out of the sleeves, and as far as I know the car is still running with the aluminum .030 pistons. I've removed many of the tin can sleeves and bored .045 and used Std 3-3/16 pistons it makes a good little engine with the A heads. Everdently the .025 sleeves fit tight in the thick block walls, I would never do it. Walt
