Default l92 heads on a iron 6.0 block

looking at putting the l92 heads on a lq block. right now the block is stock and needs a rebuild, so i'd be getting new pistons. is it better to get a bigger bore since the heads come on motors that already have a larger bore?

They flow more with a larger bore but I'm not sure it's worth it. If your block needs a cleanup, just go .030 and call it good.

.030 is good.
go with 2 valve relief pistons for higher compression
mill the heads some too

why go .030 if you dont need to. just bore it fare enuf to clean up the cylender walls. that way you have more re-builds if you want to change combos.
