If i'm not loosing alot of compression by my rings could i toss in a set of new pisons without machining the block, it's a low milage (60,000), woman driven block...(not saying all woman are nice on thier cars, but this one was)If i were to inspect and see if there was any gouges or anything in the cylinder walls and there were minimal/none or is this the worst idea ever? would be tossing in this kit

I'd take it to a machine shop and let them measure it.If its within specs,just give it a quick hone job and install new pistons and rings.
