I am rebuilding my spare engine from a 95 that was low mi (140k).Dropped block off to Klispie Machine in Hamburg Ny who is my go to shop around here.They cleaned and magd it up for me & called me today to give me options which are.
1)hone the bores reuse stock pistons and put in New rings
2)bore .020 with new pistons and rings
Is there any disadvantage to reusing pistons or boring .020 that any of you more experienced guys have seen that I should be aware of.This is my first diesel engine build and I don't want any problems.I've built my Mustangs engine problem free and my Jeeps 4.0 so I have the ability.I also have the t444e shop manual on CD Rom from ebay which is worth the $20 I paid for it.Thanks
