Have you got a vernier to hand or a mic?

Back once again like a renegade master

i have a my aldi vernier digi calipers but i'm not at home to measure but can get what measurements are needed for 2moro

also i heard if i bought oversize piston rings i could gap them to a smaller size is this true,

all it is is i've stripped my 1098 engine & its in really good condition apart from the flywheel bolt thread is chewed at the start, my puller fcked it :( grrrrr not to bad think it can be saved!

the engine only need bearings & rings to freshen it, its "cock-onin every other area, the rings may be ok but i have to check them yet!
