I was just giving an OPTION to rcull. But you had to butt in and insult me ( and yes you DID mean to insult me), trying to impress everyone. You picked on the wrong guy this time, because I expose you for what you are--a " know it all with a big nose". It does not matter what you reply back, because I have already had enough of this forum, thanks to you. " Get over yourself ! "

I know about coating. I don't know how old you are, but I am 71. I've probably forgot more about pistons than you KNOW ! So I will just tell you Mr "know it all"-- I actually used that "squeeze" process on some used 283 super stock pistons. the engine produced 500 horsepower as it should have with new pistons ! By the way-- I attended University of Illinois for my Mechanical Engineering Degree.

Who moderates these posts? I'm new, and on my very first comment trying to help someone, I get a smart a__  remark back ! Sort of takes away the atmosphere and desire to help someone. I have a lot of knowledge to share, but I won't be here long if this happens again.

To Conway's remark: I have built race engines for 50 years and set many NHRA records. I did NOT like your smart a__ remark.  I can build better engines than you!

This is REALLY off the deep end- but I have made pistons "grow" by squeezing them in a vice on the pin sides. This sounds stupid and risky but it works. You have to make the piston  slightly yield, so when you release the pressure the skirt will measure slightly bigger. Good luck
