If the ridge is at or less than .0035" Diametric change compared to the bottom of the cylinder, removing the ridge with a ridge reamer and glaze breaking with a bead breaker will be doable. If more than this (up to maybe .006) it can be straight honed, and the pistons can be re-sized by Knurling to fit. There are few shops setup to knurl pistons. They will be nervous that they will either break a piston knurling it, or that the job won"t last, or that it will still have piston slap. You might have to sign a waver to get it done. An alternative is to have the block bored out and repair sleeves installed to return it to original diameter. This works well, and is common practice. It is more expensive, but the issue is correctness to keep it in good reliable operation. Jim
