    All 4A-GZE's use the bigger 42mm journal crank. Get a new set of 20v pistons and rings and a light hone if the bores are okay, may as well get the rods checked and re-sized as well as the bearings while you're there.

    Thanks for all the replys guys. I just have to decide which way is the best for me now. To Matt it's a 7rib big port.
    So how much would a set of pistons and rings set me back Sam? In regards to cylinder honing and that. No.1 had a fair bit of surface rust on it. How much is too much rust like to far gone?

    You want nice clean and fresh honed bores if you re ringing an engine.. If you don't, it will never bed in.

    If the rust has penetrated to deep you may need to bore it out.

    Regardless, to do it properly the whole motor needs to come out, and totally cleaned, all oil galleries flushed, oil pump cleaned...etc after the hone or bore/hone has been complete

    And if your doing that, throw a set of bearings in it to.
