Is is possible to bore out a 1600 to a 2ltr without risk of the bore wall becoming too thin??

Im pretty shore you can only bore it to about 1.7 or 1.8 you have to strock it to get the other cc out off the engine.
IE: grind the crank sharft so the piston is draged more down the bore but not out off the block.
mick from micks motorsport in sydney ph 0404850942 has done a lot of 1600 stroked to 2000 with get sucses.

I gaurantee you cant get 2 litre pistons in a 1600 block cos you hit waterjackets down numbers 2 and 3. You can fit 60thou 1800 pistons, which are 85.5mm and take it out to about 1775 or so ( i think).

you can fit 2lt pistons but without a two litre crank it will only be a 1.8
