Can you bore a 5.3 to a 6.0

Doing so will render the block unusable if engine failure occurs, leaving you with nothing more than a fancy boat anchor. Do not immediately assume your engine needs standard bore pistons. With the large assortment of pistons on the market, the selection of off-shelf pistons is huge and no longer costs tons of money for non-standard pistons. Spending a few hundred dollars on machine work to ensure your pistons are matched to the cylinders can be worth it in the long run when considering the cost of replacing components after they've broken due to negligence.

Never max out your bore the first time you build, as it will prevent the ability to increase displacement in the future. At MAPerformance, we typically never bore over.
