Yeah, I checked that, I think the bores are fine, there`s no lip. It`s possible though that there`s some ovality, and the wear may be different along the bore due to the different piston speeds at different heights. So I`ll measure this just in case. BYprodriver also had a fair point when suggested that if the wear is substantial I may have a better seal with the original rings in the same position than with new ones. But most likely it`ll be fine with a fresh ring set once I find one. I think I`ll just go ahead and order a set for the 2.7 and send it back if it doesn`t fit, but I doubt that.
