Is this cylinder usable

That's under the transfer, well away from the ring end.


That's a used cylinder. If it were going to grow, I think it would have already done that, or there would at least be signs of it.

I think many of you are looking for trouble where there is none. That's a factory defect that hasn't hurt a thing. If you've cleaned up the scoring, throw a new piston in there and run it.

Not looking for trouble Brad just giving my reason for checking the bottom ring.
