Contemplating a big bore kit for a 460 rebuild.
Any recommendations?

I put a NWP big bore kit on my MS460 and have been very happy with it.

Cut around 20 cord of firewood.  It seems to pull better through the large rounds but that is only a guess as I never had a chance to do a side by side comparison.
