Message	Ok so this kid here in town claims his Z has been overbored to 4.5L race preped engine. (note this is using the same block) Personally I think he's full of @#(* but thats my opinion. I did a little math and discovered that .040 over gives you approximately 3.17L. I didn't have all the exact stats so I did alot of guestiamation. I do know that in a Chevy 350 you can overbore to the max and get another 1/2 Liter. So just wondering the exact MAX that the N/A engine can be overbored to.
