Theres no machine work ? theyre the same bore and everything ?

call a local machine shop
talk to them
tell them what you plan on doing
i bet you theres more work than you realize, theres a reason our stock pistons have different bore pistons available from the factory id AT LEAST go .020 over so you can make sure your bore is right
pressing the wrist pin off and on to install the pistons

highlighted the key word, shouldnt but its possible
have a machinist check it out BEFORE you install the pistons he will tell you what you need
youd be surprised man

I know what your saying and that's one way to do it. but you don't HAVE to buy the pistons oversized and then get the cylinders bored out. If there's nothing wrong with the cylinder walls then just buy the appropriate sized pistons.
and does anyone know about the cams ?

It would be miraculous for the cylinders to be the wrong size for the stock pistons and still be fully round. I've never heard of anyone successfully going with overbored pistons without machine work.
