well if its just the crank i dont see why you would have to bore out the cylinders. if it comes with different pistons then yeah depending if they are of a different bore. then only thing i can thank of is rebending your oil squirters so nothing hits them. like the piston on the down stroke or the side of the connecting rod.

oh yeah, you might need to trim the bottom of the cylinders just is case the stroke is too big. then the rod might hit the bottoms of the cyliner walls but im still not sure.

If you're going to stroke it, you might as well go with a larger bore while you're at it. For that much money (crank and rods), a bore and bigger pistons is the cheap part and well worth it for the extra power.

If you're going to do that, just get an LS block and slap the B16 head on it..

Then have fun. There is a reason it's not done.

John at Abacus made 200+whp on a b16 but I do believe he kept the factory crank.

Yep, good luck doing something to a B16 that hasn't been done many, many times before.
