I rebuilt a '64 196 a few yrs (4-5); my machinist (now out of business) was 
able to find all the parts.  Mine was pretty well thrashed, and went .020 on 
rods and mains, and went .060 on the pistons.  He was able to find .060 
pistons and that's what 's in it now.

How does it run??  Couldn't tell ya, it's still on the stand lookin purty...
