Its unfortunate about the engine but looking at some of the pics I'm sure you literally had a blast driving it.
Summit sells a some nice 4.080" kits if you can get away with the cylinder walls being okay, only thing is they're B/O. Maybe check with them to verify.
Another option is to check with SRP/ JE pistons, I'm sure they can build exactly what you need at a cost, I would double check whether a aluminum block liners can go .085".

As for shimming the bearing I usually go for .150" but ultimately its best to check with the clutch manufacturer.
Hope things get back together okay.

Thanks for the tip. I wasn't even thinking to look on summit. and those kits look to be a pretty good deal. the 6cc pistons are pretty close to what I had before (4cc) hopefully not a noticeable drop in compression from 2ccs....but yikes estimated ship date is October 16 2024. I should order it so that it arrives shortly after I blow up the next engine.



as for the clutch bearing shimming, I'm sure I was aiming for whatever the spec was, but somehow ended up with a negative .026"....you can bet i'm going to be over analyzing this and measuring 9 times when the engine goes back in.

I'll post some pics of the cylinders in a bit.
