Re: Real Barn Find Engine
I am told it was a fairly common practice in the old days to only bore one cylinder. It didn't seem to matter very much so no one thought much about it. You're running into depression era economics! Cheapest way! Bill W. can elaborate on this, He lived it.

Re: Real Barn Find Engine
Get an inside micrometer or bore gauge and measure all of the holes below the ring travel. The other pistons likely are a match, or not. If they are all the same, get a new set of SilvoLite pistons .030 over and a ring set and be done with it.
