More likely to be 1.00, as in 1.00mm which is .040" over. Any .100" over piston would be a custom made jobby and highly unlikely to have anything on the top of the piston at all. Woz

Guaranteed that it is 100 thou over size there is no decimal, because Ive already been through this with other mechanics and have proven them wrong, if needed I could get a picture
As for how much, I have no idea,make an offer

I can not remove the head as head gaskets are single use! I will post some pics of the engine and some pictures I took of the piston tops with a fibreoptic camera, am in the process of aquiring receipts from the machinist
