  Merry Christmas gang!!

    Well it looks like I'll be forced to bore out my 4 cylinder Fordson w/ 
4.125" bore.  In talking to an ole aviator he mentioned that they chrome 
plated pistons oversize.  Has anyone done this with good results?  or how 
about brass plating?

   I'd like to stay away from sleeving as this engine is thermo-syphon 
cooled and it will be hard to find a shop to re-bore let alone install 
sleeves.

    "preciate your comments.
