I had head off recently to check right bank top side bore condition and scaled them rough at 3 3/16" Getting ready to pull engine and put on indexing stand to pull piston & replace rings on #2.

Thx A bones & Ronnie, I'll check with both Hastings and VP JIC.
Can replace rings without removing engine. I've done it on a 37 engine. A little hard to get the pan off but it can be done.
