It is really a quick and easy job to do.

As long as the piston is in good shape it does not need to be replaced.
Just a good cleaning, new rings and the hone.

Right but will the shop need them to do the work?

Here are some photos of what I have found. I will get the cam on here later...also I nicked the outside ends of the wheel on the stator side. It was small and I filed the burr down. It doesn't mesh with any other parts so I figure its all good.

It appears my regular oil usage was from oil passing through the head gasket and into the chamber from the HP oil line.

But so far so it's not bad, unless I just missed something.

I lack photo skills but the cylinder is very smooth, with and gold tone color and you can still see some original honeing marks. However there are some slight vertical scores on the front and rear sides of the cylinder at the bottom 4th...can't feel them with the finger tips though. Might be from the natural push and pull of the rod and piston.

Those are typical findings on what I consider to be a good used cylinder.
