cylinders and pistons
I bought a spare motor. I tore it apart and found it was a stroker motor. It look like it has about 10 hours on it. No carbon on the pistons just light oil and head looks great!
I want to use the cylinders. The pistons are 20 over that came out and they are pressed into the rods.
The cylinders are clean no scratches and lightly used. Can I buy 20 over pistons and install them in these cylinders on my main ride?
Or do I have to ship it to a machine shop and have them buy pistons?
Thanks

2 different piston materials - stroker iron 99 percent of the time are forged and require a .005 piston to wall clearance
second set is a cast doubtful its a cast piston and they are used in stock or near stock and the piston to wall is .003 so what happens is the engine will have a piston retelling using those cylinders with a cast piston with out re boring them to ,030 and setting it at .003
