That's interesting - I contacted Wiseco when I did my big bore kit a cfew years ago and they told me they didn't do one :?

Having seen how close together the bores are and how thin the liners are, I'm not sure I'd want to go 2.5 oversize but ......

Presume they are high compression pistons?

Maybe email Wiseco and ask them for more info.

And how much does that Santa money work out to be in UK pounds?

This is Swiss franc....wich translates to 6.100 SEK....wich is a bit under 600€....about 50€ more than what TTS wanted for the 91mm bore....
And it´s cylinder barrels included!

That includes new barrel liners - sound like a good deal. Not sure how easy it would be to remove the old ones and press in the new ones though?

Wish I'd know that when my last engine threw a rod and smashed the liners - i ended up having to buy a complete new motor.

Will update thread when i get more info....those german speaking dudes have proved not to be the fastest repliers there is.... :shock:

EDIT:
Well, that went fast enough:

available anymore...we will remove it from our website
with the next update. We are sorry...

problem is its NOT "press out old sleeve, press in new one, bingo"

you MUST bore out the block AFTER the sleeves are removed, and press in new sleeves into the freshly bored hole..

how do i know ? ive done it.. there is physically no otehr way.
