Alan ,

Given that the standard bore is 3.4375" and you should have a clearance 
measured at the bottom of the skirt at right angles to the gudgeon (wrist) 
pin of .0012" to .0018", just mike the pistons. As long as there is not 
extreme scuffing you should find a meaurement somewhere around 3.4373".
