Mixed cylinder heights?
Can you mix cylinder heights?
Engine is a 3.2 and one of the cylinders I purchased is a different height group from the others (All 5's or 6's). Should I try to have the tall one(s) machined down to the short size? or talk to the seller and try to undo the deal as they are not usable? Thanks, Rob

It's not a big deal to fix, you can have all the tops surface ground to match up the height groups. We do it all the time when reconditioning cylinders. It runs about $35/cyl once everything is said and done. The one benefit of doing so is you start with a fresh sealing surface.
