Need some info on 6.0 iron block What is the factory bore? I am looking to order some forged pistons and was wondering what is the factory bore size? My block will not need to be bored so It will probably just get a hone with the new pistons. I also need to know the factory rod and crank dimensions. I already tried to search it and couldn't come up with any thing.
