cylinder options...
I have an 86 944T and I'm in the process of heavily modifying the motor. I stripped down the block to have it hot-tanked and noticed some good size scratches in the #1 cylinder. All the rings looked fine as well as the other cylinders. I'm talked to some people and I think I've gotten a different answer every time. Some have said to just run it with new rings, some say to hone it to 100.5mm and the latest is to have the entire cylinders replaced (with a re-enforced bottom) with 104mm cylinders. One constant has been that "sleeving" is bad, espeically for high HP applications. So I'm just looking for some more opinions and input as to how this can be dealt with properly. Thanks,
-Paul
