this thing smoked like hell and I took it apart and found that the piston was alll scratched up and the bore it also is all scratched up maybe can be reamed and it will clean up if so can I just put a new stock piston in it or can I go bigger, .10 ,20 ,or .30 over , if not how hard is it to get the sleeve out of the so called block and do they sell one overize to get that little more HP .I am new to this site and would like some information or maybe a kit or any thing that can point me in the right direction on this topend rebuild , thanks
 
i would say just get it bored out to the next size up and u will be good to go ..

Agreed, unless your getting really serious into your blaster and have a ton of money to drop, just get it bored to were it needs to be and put a new piston in it. Stock bore is 66mm. 67mm is .40 over, .25mm = .10 over, etc. etc.

If you bore it just big enough, youll have enough meat left over to do it again later if needed, instead of looking for a new cylinder like fowlrock.
 
thanks I did want to know the stock bore size to see where it is at my piston has an x on it and a arrow , which I know go toward front ,is the x stock size piton there are no # on it ,can I just ream this and clean it up and then put .10 in it , thanks
 
you mean bore it, i believe reaming is tapored, but take it to a machine shop and have them look atit to see if 1 size up is good if so, buy a new piston and have them bore it to that specific piston, they are not all perfect like the box says
