took the block into the local racing shop to have the motor bored out .30 mm over they bored it .030 thousandths over or about .075 mm over. anyone know a source for oversize pistons that big. i know that sounds like a good laugh out loud but im serious, ok so maybe you cant help me there. how about cylinder head for a 760 b 230 ft any input appreciated

    Standard oversize pistons should be available. I know B21FT pistons have become very difficult but B230FT should still be available. The work youre having done is pretty standard machine work. Some shops however bore and sleeve the block (usually just cyl #1), rather than overboring the whole thing.
    That way stock pistons can be reused.

    Try FCP Groton- speak to them on the phone, they carry many more things than are on their website. www.fcpgroton.com
