If it's a used block get it bored, the walls between bores are narrow but it tends not to cause any problems. I would only fit standard pistons to a brand new block. With a re-bored block at least you know you've got spotless bore to start with (as long as it's done properly).
thats the problem, getting it done right. every zetec bore ive seen is mint, cant see the point IMO
