Looking for the science/technical reasoning behind this.
The question is if you have an engine that's not burning oil, high mileage, great looking bores with no ring ridge, why can't you just clean it all and put it back together. Nearly every post I've read online says that new rings and scuffing the bore is mandatory. Nearly every post I've read says if you don't it will be an oil burner. Why?
It's on an 06 ford v6. So fairly modern piston and ring package. I couldn't believe how nice the bores looked, It just seems a shame to rough up the walls that have been polished so nice.
The downside I don't know that i'm sold on the sintered metal cracked rods, the concentricity was only decent on about 2 of the 6 rods.
