Re: Source for Pistons/and some ?s

yep, you'll need to bore the block oversized.  No conflicts with rods or
crank, though.  Shouldnt be a problem with the head gasket either.  You
will need to buy the corresponding oversized rings, but thats probably
obvious.
  
I'm also looking for a 2.0 shortblock myself for this summer when i
replace the clutch but
i was thinking of keeping the standard pistons.  I couldnt really find a
good deal on oversized 2.0 pistons. what price can Potterman get on them?
because if its less than than the $600 for forged JE's i might actually
consider doing the oversized thing too.
