+0.50mm or +1.00mm Oversize Pistons & Rings
Does anyone know where I can get a set of oversized Pistons and Rings in either 0.50mm or 1.00mm ? The engine wear is worse than I thought, hoping for less than 0.20mm of wear allowing a +0.40mm rebore oversize would do, sadly this isn't the case the engine block has 0.36mm of wear so it needs at minimum of 0.50mm rebore possibly 1.00mm. Volvo no longer list a +0.50mm or +1.00mm oversize but a maximum of +0.40mm which isn't going to be sufficient

I think you have answered yourself Charlotte
I went for +0.40 re bore on my new engine build and I believe these are the biggest size pistons that Volvo do. you could try Stern parner in Sweden for other sizes but the liners would be thin at +1.00mm . |
