I currently have my motor torn down, the number 2 cylinder looks pretty horrid.... Looking at the money aspect would it be cheaper to find a used block that just needs to be honed, or to have the one I have bored and get over sized pistons?... Not looking at the money aspect which would be the better option?

if money is not an issue, i highly suggest overboring .020. how bad is the cylinder? toyota does have oversized pistons, so if you want to repair the one cylinder you can. but for best results, do all 4.
