2001Stroker Posted April 7, 2009 Report Share Posted April 7, 2009 You can go up to .100 over. I wouldn't go past .080 though. Do you need to go to .060? What size bore is in it now? You should only bore to the size that's neccessary to get rid of any screwed up spots in the cylinders. Take the jugs to a machinist, and get him to measure the bore. He'll tell you what size you need to go to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ran .100 over cylinders for 3 seasons, ZERO overheating issues, or any other issues for that matter. They actually ran very hard! Unless you're in a pinch, I agree on the fact of not surpassing .080. I bought my banshee with .100 over cylinders on it. Just letting you know that you have plenty of life left in your jugs.
