[QUOTE="Alex VW Heritage, post: 518590, member: 19109"] Hi Steve I have used and sold LOTS of the AA B&P kits and they are great value. I presume you have a 1600cc engine. You will be able to go for 1641cc very easily without modifying the cylinder heads or cases. This uses the 87mm piston and barrel kits: https://www.vwheritage.com/vw_spares_Barrel-Piston-kit-1641cc-87mmx69mm-Repro-AC198870R_act_shop.product_pID_19649725.htm" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; You wont be able to run 90.5mm heads on 88mm B&P's. The 88mm piston and barels have a stock sized outer bore. 90.5mm are larger. Anything further will require some machine to your case and cylinder heads. Do feel free to give me a call or email if you want to talk through this further: 01273 444 000 alex@vwheritage.com Hope this helps Cheers Alex [/QUOTE]
