Default 6.0 iron block bore 20 over

I have a 6.0 motor and the machine shop says I need to bore the motor 20 over. What size piston wil I need to put my motor back together?

Have the block sonic tested to see if you can go 0.065" over, and run some 6.2/ls3 piston.

Depends upon which rods you have- piston pin diameter? Summit has a bunch, examples like this.

You will probably have the most options in a 4.030" bore.
