I had a guy who had me bore 360-390 block .080 and build as 428,as far as I know it's still running and it's been 20 years ago last saw him couple years ago was told me still had it.
I look at it like this they make pistons .060 if you go .080 cylinder is only .010 thinner on each side,and I don't believe .010 difference on cylinder is going to make or break it,if it fails @ .080 it was most likely going to @ .060.

I agree with who ever said to sonic check cylinders, they have been rusting 20 more years since I done that and I may have just been lucky.
