Mopar 400 block 8 sleeves
OK so it turned out that bores were not square with crank which helped the situation a bit. The block cleaned at 4.378" before hone.
I'm now back at the idea of taking my 4.375" pistons and "growing" them with ceramic coat. Normal layer they apply is up to .006 thick in diameter and they do .003-.004" fit.
The block should be 4.380" honed easily.
Fianally something positive.
