Default Advise on sleeves

need some opinions. Does this look like "normal piston wear" or slap?

Also, do you think it will need or a bore/hone or what?

just bored it out and hone it, save youself a big headache, everytime you pop out the piston you'll most likely have to bore it out and hone it and get new rings, and no thats not normal, especially the marks on the side of the sleeve

i wouldnt say thats slap or normal wear. it almost apears the the piston or cylinder aren't completely round. What i have saw from piston wear is a big area that is warn no a couple spots like that. if your just tring to get it back to normal i would just hone it. but if you're building it up bored it out 20 over and slap some new piston & rings in it. You may want to check your clearance on your bearings too... it may have too much causing the pistons to be slightly digging into the cylinder wall. good luck

as the stated before it could be a out around cylinder, a bad ring gaps...or it could be from running rich and washing the cylinder walls out.
