i am ready to rebuild my ever-weakening (bad rings) 450 this winter and was wondering what i should do. i would like to get a lot more power than stock, but keep it pretty "mild" because it will still see alot of farm use and only be pulled a few times a year. i was thinking of a bigger bore and higher compression. is there anyone who sells a good overbore sleeve and piston kit or should i just get the high altitude pistons and keep the stock bore? what is the compression of the high altitude pistons? also what is the biggest bore i could go without having to bore the block to fit the bigger sleeves. anything else simple i should know about that will make power? thanks.
