Message	Cylinder's/piston's tend to wear in an oval and a tapper shape, which you cant see with a naked eye. (unless its really really bad) If your concerned with them failing, bring it to a machine shop so they can measure it with a telescoping micrometer. What are you planning to do for the valves/heads?
