Whats the difference with stock size pistons and oversized?
oversize pistons well of coarse are bigger but you will have to take your block to a machine shop and get them to bore it to the size of the pistons you have best thing to do is take your block and pistons to the shop and let them do that for you depends where you live but to get it bored can average to a $100 or up and if you get oversize pistons you will also need rings to fit the pistons and the other difference in oversize and standard the overside will give you more hp.
Can you put new rings in your engine without changing bore size?
Unfortunately this is not a simple "yes/no" question. Sometimes an engine can be disassembled and there is little if any cylinder wear, especially if the oil has been changed regularly and the engine has been properly cared for. If there is no wear you can hone the cylinder walls and put new rings in, provided that the pistons are also not worn. Obviously worn pistons need to be replaced as well. If the cylinders have as little as a couple thousands of "taper" you need to have the cylinders bored and replace the pistons/rings with an over-sized version. That kind of cylinder "boring" doesn't change the displacement enough to make any significant difference.
How do you know whether to use oversized pistons and rings when rebuilding an engine?
One would use over-sized pistons and rings (TOGETHER!) when the cylinder has been bored to accept the next size piston. For instance, damage to a cylinder wall may necessitate boring the cylinder an extra 0.020" (twenty-thousandths of an inch). You would then use a piston and ring set that was 0.020" larger than the originals.
What size pistons would be best in a Ford Falcon for horsepower?
Hi, only one size of pistons will fit - need to match the bore diameter - unless you want to rebore the engine to increase capacity. However, there may be a stroker kit available for your particular model.
What size is yosemite?

Are 94mm and 90.5 mm air cooled vw pistons the same size?
Definitely they are not the same size.

Can you put a 400 crankshaft in a Chevy 305?
It can be done, but the crankshaft would have to be turned down to the correct size. Also, you would need to use the 400 rods or get a custom set of pistons.
How many cubic inches is a 60 over 305 with a 350 crank?
305 and 350 share the same stroke, so that doesn't change the size of the engine. Installing 60 over pistons would increase the displacement by 12 cubic inches.
What is engine housing boring machine?
An engine housing boring, or line boring machine used to bore the block for main bearings of a crank, where straightness required inline with the each whole according to the crank size
How many compression rings do pistons have?
At least one, could be many more depending on size of engine.
