Thank you all for feedback.
Looking forward to test these out :)

1.
Is there something special I need to inform the engine workshop with?
Clearances they shall make for the pistons?

90% sure when APE Race parts did my pistons they were done at .002 clearance....... I told them I wanted them done at the min clearance they would recommend......... but since I'm not 100% sure or they might go a little different on the 810 kit I'd ask them.

The paper work with the Wiseco kit will have info on piston clearance and ring end gap.
If the shop doing the work is worth a shit they'll know how to do it.

I picked up the pistons today, will deliver them to workshop next week.

I found papers inside each piston explain the clearness for the piston rings, red paper as SWest gave me below.

1. What about the clearness between the liners / cylinder walls and the piston, should that be 0,051mm, please see attached photo?
2. Is there more I need to inform the workshop of, is it a special hone I shall use or something?

Ok looks like my memory of .002 was right........ (anyone else like to confirm this) ........one thing is when you get the block back wash it with soap and water then scrub the walls down with wd40 and clean paper towels till they come out spot less........ had to go over mine maybe 3 or 4 times till I got all the honing grit off.

Take the pistons to the shop doing the bore work and let them do their job stop over complicating things
looking for the perfect answer.

I've done five over bored motors this past year and not one time did I have to tell the mechine shop how to do thier job.

Hehe thank you for your replays :)

I’m a person who want to understand / learn, so I wouldent “micro controlled” the work shop,. Always nice to understand what they do, they normal work with cars and tractor pulling engines.

I will deliver the piston next week, looking forward to get the piston and head back :)

I need to double check with you all, I can use a OEM head gasket with the 810CC bigbore pistons?

Did the Wiseco piston kit come with a gasket from them ...... mine did and I've have heard good things about them and its working well after close to 4 years and a couple thousand miles. The oem gasket is top notch too I'm just not sure if it fits the bigger bore and will let others answer that.

I used a one piece Cometic 903 head gasket on my 1015. I thought it would cause pre ignition but had no problems with the smaller size I bought a 70mm fiber one this last time and had to use it twice. Still works great with Copper spray this last time. Next time I'll go with the one piece copper one with the copper spray.

I was only purchase the bigbore kit with pistons....

I have a original OEM gasket, so I can use it for 810cc also, then?

Or will these be a bad plan.. and it will not work for long time?
