well it depends on how much the machine shop takes off of the cylander walls and the crank shaft... the best thing to do is consult with them about how much you need to have it done and then buy the bearings and what not accordingly....

I've seen rebuild kits on ebay for cheap. I bet you could buy one of those and order the sizes you need.

who will be building it? the machine shop? or you?

because if you take parts to a machine shop they will tell you to get bent usually. but if they are doing the machine work only, you can tell them how you want it done.

usually the bigger piston and bearing sizes are if the bores are ovaled or for second rebuilds. no need to use them for a first rebuild unless your block is really bad, in which case you usually would try to find a new donor block anyway.
