Is number 8 bore out of round aswell
Bad news man , can you see why garages don't want this type of work ..... one missed thing and it all has to come back out .
Any ' breaking cars ' with a full engine s for sale ?

Yes I checked and all pistons have a full clear cycle, all come to the top at the same level.
Number 8 is next to 7 and is perfectly round
Its almost as if the damaged piston in 8 has been swapped from 7 as the damage to cylinder and piston match but this engine has never been out. I will tidy the garage today and have a fresh start
