While I am guessing you really mean't .080 overbore I really had a good laugh with Mal's and Randy's post. I would be interested in how you make out with boring the cylinders out that far. Where would you get the pistons in that size?
Yup, typo, I didn't even catch it until now! I
MEANT a total of 3.588".
Pistons? As long as a piston manufacturer has the proper bore size blank, they can make anything to order. Of course the limiting factor in all of this is the head gasket. A 359 head gasket for the 3&9/16" bore will fit a 356, but I doubt that you can go much bigger than that.
