I was considering doing a head job and changing the pistons and cylinders on my 1.8 liter while I have it out. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/huh.gif)

What are the oem cylinders? 70 mm? I have seen people peddling "94mm" I am not looking at doing dual carbs right now. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/screwy.gif)



Can I go larger and still use the stock L jetronic Fuel Injection system that I have kept well maintained over the years?
