can a 60 be bored to take a stock 65 piston

(1/4) > >>

jonny500:
i have a barrel from a kx 60 with a steel liner at 43mm stock bore, it needs a rebore but all the o/s piston are very costly in the u.k. how ever there are loads off cheap stock kx65 pistons 44.5mm (i think). any 1 now if the ring gaps are in the right place and the wrist pins the same size ect
thanks in advance :-D

thanks doldguy, i looked on that site and the part numbers for the 46mm 65 piston kit and the 46mm 60 kit are different so i think its a no go unless anyone knows different

Just a guess on my part but it might serve you. When swapping something like that I would check the stock rod length & stroke length of each. If they match & the pistons cheap enough it might be worth the gamble

jonny500:
the stroke and wrist pin is defo the same and so is the crank i think. its the ring gap i am stuck on now
thanks for your inptut guys
