Pistons do not come in singles. They are made in a batch so they are
all the same design, weight and size. You are going to have to buy a
set of pistons so do not waist the money and stay standard, spend the
little extra and bore to the next size or what ever size pistons you
can get. DO NOT BORE before you have new pistons in hand.
