| Mark and gang,
While I wouldnt arbitrarily bore from  .020 to .060 (stop at .030 or .040
first),
I would have no problem using those .060 pistons.
You can always have custom pistons made if it suits you.

Subject: Flat top Pistons 
I've only managed to find one set of flat top pistons here in the UK and 
they're +60th (thanks Tom Hill) - does anyone else know of any that can be 
used with standard 1725 rods & how much they cost? I'm reluctant to buy the 
+60s the advice seems to be don't go over +40th or am I being too cautious. 
After reading the David Vizard book I'm keen to get this project underway.  
p.s. I saw the sun today in London! 
thanks in advance
