I would suggest definitely getting the cylinder measured for bore and taper. More than just a few thousandths taper and your rings won’t last long because they will be “working” (changing diameter) every time the piston moves up and down the cylinder. You have the 4 and 1/8 in inch over bore and this was done to increase the cubic inch displacement and increase power. Are your pistons flat or do they have a “step” on them? I ask because if you are planning on doing a show tractor then maybe you can get by with just rings. If you are planning on working this tractor, I’d seriously consider a sleeve and piston kit, and going with a stepped piston. You will have more power, and basically a fresh engine when you are done. I know more money also…
