I was given a SBT engine where both pistons are stamped 1.00 on top. I would like to know the size of the piston/bore that SBT uses?

i used a bore gauge and both cylinders are circular(true) and straight at 6 diff points in the cylinder.
cylinder= 3.2725 inches
piston= 3.272 inches
piston clearance= .0005
im looking to rebuild and purchase top end kit from SBT. I would like to know what piston size would you recommend?Comment

Book bore is 3.228, You don’t match the pistons to the cylinders you match the pistons you have in hand to what the cylinder needs to be bored to, always measure your pistons first, allow for clearance and set the cylinder up for that size.SBT Tech Support is here to help with your problems.
