Knowing that the bore of my original was 1", I think, I ordered a master for the correct application with the same size bore. I disassembled both, honed out the original to clean it. Then reassembled the old master with the new innerds and it's been doing fine.

Creative 'end around' solution. Kudos for thinking outside the lines.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....
Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
