98' block...3.903" possible?
Just wondering if a .005" hone is to much on a 98 block?I have taken 99 and up block's to 3.908" with no problems..but with a 98 block I have never tried it because I know the liners are much thinner.What is the max hone size with a 98 block safely?The block I am going to use is at exactly 3.8979..but it is a low mileaged used block,I was planning on using mahle motorsport 3.898" pistons..but with a hone i am afraid the block will exceed 3.8980" to acheive the correct cross hatch.Any info would be awesome,Thank's,

I have taken the '98 block 3.905" without any issues to speak of. Some of the best running, most power making forged setups I built were '98 blocks for whatever reason.
