Joe,

Sorry to take so long replying to you, I wasn't ignoring you, I was out of
town for work.

I tried a quick search, all I came up with was info on a BMC A series
engine.  Same principle though.  This guy took a 1275cc (originally the A
series were 948cc) all the way up to 1380cc in his bugeye.  1275 -> 1380 is
8.5%;  1500 -> 1600 is 6.5%  so we are basically talking the same thing
here, if not a little more.  His website is:
http://ourworld-top.cs.com/JCareyPage/ah.html

Not exactly proof, as requested, but similar to the idea I was talking
about.

Take Care,
Bill

Bill,
I remain skeptical!  The numbers just don't add up.  you can't bore an
engine past acceptable tolerances and stroking a 1500 borders on
lunacy.

I demand to see proof!!!  :)
