does the block have to be honed out?...
what would these pistons change? compression ratio any?

thanks, guys! didn't mean to come off as knowing it all. I greatly appreciate the information and the STS kit should be ordered soon.
only thing with their kit is some of their piping i cannot stand...looks like it could have been done an easier way; but thats what you have 'exhaust' shops for. A guy back home will be able to fab me up anything for my piping needs.
Hope yalls projects/finished projects keep on going.....in june i'll be going to fayetnamm(before i get the STS kit on) to see what i'm running now. maybe i'll see some of yall out there if yall live around

anyone see rods in my future? Alvin@pcmforless pretty much says not to worry at all about those as I won't have a tremendous amount of power to do such a replacement
