motor rebuild
Thinking about rebuilding my cubs motor this year. Runs good buts smokes like crazy, she'll run through a quart of oil after mowing maybe 20 acres. I saw some cub pistons on ebay, they are .010 over, aluminum and have a hump on them. Mine is a 48 cub. Will these fit mine assuming .010 is enough overbore to get everything round?

Big John ,the aluminium pistons required a different part# for the rods. You will have to use the cast pistons If you plan on using the rods in the 48 engine.But first you may want to pull our head and do some measuring on the bores to to see if you need to bore or if you are lucky it may just need a set of rings. I too thought I could buy the aluminum pistons and up the HP. but the cost of the rods was prohibitive. After all the machine work .20 over pistons and a rebuilt crank I have over $600. in the engine on the 1949 Steve
