[QUOTE="atafonso, post: 596555, member: 23592"] The case and the heads needs machining. Your cylinders cannot be bored for 90.5mm for there is no enough meat in them and also no machine shops can do it due to cost and a special fixture needed to simulate the torqued condition of the cylinder in the engine to be bored correctly round. If you buy the 90.5mm pistons and cylinders, machine case and heads; everything else can be reused if in good condition, including the exhaust. If you plan to make more power(instead of torque), then you can change the cam, add dual carbs and choose a more free flowing exhaust. Keeping all stock parts and only increasing capacity to 1776cc will make the engine considerably more torquey, perfect if all you want is to improve driveability. Abel [/QUOTE]
