kman1600 0 Posted June 21, 2006 Hi, Just wondering if anyone has messed around with non-standard bore sizes? I intend to compete in a class with an upper limit of 1700cc and was thinking about looking into an 85mm bore to give 1696cc, an increase of some 7% over standard. Anybody got any experience with this? Thanks Tim Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

petert 588 Posted June 23, 2006 I'm not sure I'd bore the 8V liners out that far, but I've got Mi16 liners bored to 84mm. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kman1600 0 Posted June 26, 2006 Hi, Thanks for the replies, with a little more research 85mm liners seem to be available but I would still need to sort pistons. Are there any options other than the rather pricy JE ones? Thanks Tim Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
