[QUOTE="VeeDubMan, post: 125694, member: 3552"] I would say don't take anything the previous owner has said for granted. If you've been told the top end is OK, get it checked out for sure. This will need to be done anyway when the bottom end is re-done. The cheapest way to go would be to stick with the same size cc, get the case align-bored and checked, get the crank checked over and do a re-build from there. As soon as you start talking more cc, you're into much more money. 1776cc would be the next usable size up, but expect to pay over £1K for parts alone for it. Take a look at other threads on here about engine rebuilds to get some ideas. [/QUOTE]
