Just a train of thought, gas motors do it all the time have you done it or heard of someone boreing out a motor and oversized pistons?? This might be a waste of time thread but just curious. Now that i am starting to work my way into money i can look into these mods.

 

no substantial gains to it.

Boring is only useful to us if the cylinders are oval'd out.

 

oh, i always was told that nothing beats boreing a motor out but i guess my dad doesnt know what he is talking about lol

 

It's different with our trucks. Nothing to gain with it cause its such high compression.

I'm sure if your shooting for 800 hp it could make a difference.
But for normal use, I dont' think you'll see any.
I was gonna do 20 over on my block for the same thoughts as you did, and asked a few guys and found out its a waste of money. heh.

 

well thanks, its nice to know. reps sent, just cause i dont know what they are for lol

 

Green beans!

I'm not the green bean king
but I sure am the Red Bean king. =)

 

For super high horse power numbers, itl do good. But youd see little to no gain for a DD. Now on a gas engine, its a different story. I have a mustang with a 289 thats bored over, and it definately makes a difference. I think like talyn said, it has to do with the compression.
And WTF, whered KEITH STONE GO??

 

Yeah, better to spend that money on an intercooler, head studs, water/meth injection, turbo, injectors, traction bars, chip, intake, downpipe, exhaust.... and the list goes on...

 

haha guys remb im 17 going to service out of high school by the time i get back my truck will be outdated and you guys will all have 6.7's... brown falcon trust me i have a list of what i want to do

 

Out dated or not il stick with my 7.3. Thanks for your service and dont worry we will still be here when you get back and help mark off the mods on your list

 

I'ma have a fleet of 7.3's by the time I'm 40. I made a promise to myself.
That and a warehouse full of OBS body parts.

 

Yep, won't get me into a 6.7.... gotta stick with the 7.3, might have a 2011 full interior in my '95 by then, but then engine is staying!

 

Im 17 too, so i know how you feel ryan. But we'll make our trucks what we want eventually!

 

Been in your alls shoes. Just be patient ans you'll get there. Im 21

 

Y'all are making me feel old, and I'm only 25...
