T5 cylinder
I've got an old T5 cylinder that has been seized and now has damaged plating. Can it be rebored, replated, and a bigger piston used or just replated and use a standard piston.

you could bore it out, replate it or steel line it and use a suzuki TS185 piston
This sounds just the job, if I remember correctly Mark Broadhurst used to offer something similar in the late 80's. The next question is would it work with a box exhaust and up jetted carb?gaz_powell wrote:you could bore it out, replate it or steel line it and use a suzuki TS185 piston

box pipe and standard carb works perfectly
