I pulled the engine after I found out that there was some serious detonation present. Now I need some help what todo. The scoring in the cylinder is bad, but when I go over with my nail it barely not catches. But almost half of the cylinder is effected by the scoring.
I'm hoping to replace the pistons and do a hone so that I don't have to bring the engine to the shop. Or have the pistons reworked by turning? What do you guys think?
There is only one solution:
Rebuild engine.
You don't want a different set of pistons in that block and if the rest is good, go a bit deeper.
Put in some forged rods and +1mm pistons and you are good to go.

Thank you for the reply. The pistons are already +1. And the rods are forged as well. So bigger pistons is not an option.
