On a 1990 Chevy 350 when the block is bored 30 thousenths over does anything else need to be changed other then oversized pistons And how do you set the right timing for it?

Whats the difference with stock size pistons and oversized?
oversize pistons well of coarse are bigger but you will have to take your block to a machine shop and get them to bore it to the size of the pistons you have best thing to do is take your block and pistons to the shop and let them do that for you depends where you live but to get it bored can average to a $100 or up and if you get oversize pistons you will also need rings to fit the pistons and the other difference in oversize and standard the overside will give you more hp.
Can you put a use piston in?
no no no no no, and once again to solidify my point, no! as the engine is used your pistons, and cylinder walls wear in a certain pattern, and they have a different level of wear from car to car, what you have to do generally is send the motor to a machinist to bore the cylinders out slightly, then get new oversized pistons
What does it mean when oil is in the pistons of a 2003 Volvo S40 1.9L turbo?
It may not mean anything at all. Motor oil is used to lubricate and cool the pistons. If there's a lot on the side of the pistons, then it's possible that you need to replace the piston rings.
Whats the problem Peugeot 106 no oil in the engine and the pistons bent all the exhaust valves changed the 4 valves and the pistons are still hitting the exhaust valves and the valve timing is right?
your timing can not be right
What are the different designs in pistons except for cylindrical one and why?
The shape of the piston hasn't changed over the years, what has changed is the alloys used to make them, so they can withstand higher temperatures.
How do you know whether to use oversized pistons and rings when rebuilding an engine?
One would use over-sized pistons and rings (TOGETHER!) when the cylinder has been bored to accept the next size piston. For instance, damage to a cylinder wall may necessitate boring the cylinder an extra 0.020" (twenty-thousandths of an inch). You would then use a piston and ring set that was 0.020" larger than the originals.
Are sbc 350 pistons and sbc 400 pistons the same?
No. Standard 350 engines have 4.00" pistons, standard 400 pistons are 4.125".
What does the v mean in v8 engines?
its the way the pistons are arranged, like if you were to look at an engine head on with it right side up directly in front of you and you could see inside of it the pistons would be in a V shape. That is what the "v" is referring to, but it does not stand for anything.
What city were the pistons before they became the Detroit pistons?
The Pistons originated in Ft. Wayne, Indiana.
How can i get more hp?
The easiest are things like header and low backpressure exhaust system. Then you can get into changing the computer chip, increasing the cylinder bore, raising the compression (high compression pistons), increasing the stroke, oversized valves, performance camshaft, turbo (or supercharger)... It's all about the money and time.
How do you compress the caliper piston on the rear of a 1988 buick riveria?
I just changed my rotors and pads all the way around. The front pistons compress (used a C-clamp). The rear pistons screw clockwise back into the caliper. Good luck, I hope this helped. Rob in Idaho
What are Things which can run with steam?
Steam trains, wheels, pistons, anything to do with pressure actually. Although steam is weaker than compressed air.
