    I'm just mulling over my build right now and was wondering if it was possible.

    Still, its not worth it, the amount of money you'd spend on parts and all the money at the machine shop is not worth it.

    If you have the shop machine anything, have them look over it and drill out the oil galley holes, especially the ones furthest from the pump.. That should be more of a concern than boring it out.. Which honestly, your engine will probably go out if they bore it out.

    3800:101..don't touch the bottom end
