nice to know that zpi got those numbers. and if you are gonna sleeve the block then you should be more than ok to bore it. i just wanna keep the stock sleeves and replace the rods/pistons, headgasket and head bolts.
i'm not sure if i wanna do anything with the head, if any i'll just replace the valvetrain with stock size/angle units and go from there. i don't like messing with the original equipment. i just like to make it stronger.
good luck!
