Thanks Dawie

This will help me alot.

There is also 87mm oversize on 1600s giving 1641cc ie 1.5mm oversize and if you are adventurous there is toyota pistons at 88mm which gives 1679
etc etc etc

77mm bore pods for the fixed genie pedistal and the loose ones, are they inter changeble?

[IMPI]

Nope the 36 hose had smaller spigots in the head I suppose some types of cylinder can be modified.

That Toyota piston modification sounds rather interesting. Any idea of how much power one can make out of a 1679 engine

dont even think about it. Toyota piston is heavier than stock (by a lot) and the cylinder is honed out so far it cant maintain its shape properly... if you want to do that, get the "machine in" 88mm kit that come with pistons and has a properly thick cylinder wall. But for the same price you can build a 1776 with thick walled sleeves

[Blitzkrieg]

Thanks for the input Tony Z.Thought that it would make a nice budget combo, as those Toyota pistons can be had for free

[Tony Z]

3 options.

1) cheap
2) quality
3) performance

choose any 2, you cant have 3

I've heard that one before and it's most definitely true
