What symptoms did the car have for you to come to the conclusion it needed a piston?

HEVEN67 · « **Reply #7 on:** October 23, 2007, 09:01:39 am »

The # 4 piston had picked up in the bore, When I measured it last nite It only had 1 thou clearence piston to bore! I have another piston to go in but the whole bottom and has been poorly engineered. I am just putting it together to get me to The beachboys concert and then into the shead, a the new donk , repaint the engine bay and rewire is on.
