Clean and check the piston tops to see if it has been bored - number will be stamp on piston. If your way out .80 plus, then I would consider finding another block and rebuild it. When cyliner metal gets to thin, there is nothing you can do to cool the engine. For what you are wanting it for the closurer to stock bore the better. Make sure all carbon is removed from piston, heads and valves before reassembly of the engine. Have the heads checked for crack and warpage.
