I'm not running them (yet), but 89mm is the cut-off. 92mm requires
machining the block and are not recommended for the street as they heat
unevenly and eventually warp. Larger ones are possible, but not recommended
at all. Not sure who BFE gets the pistons from offhand, but the liners are
made locally, from a higher grade of steel than the thicker liners. ISTR
the pistons are too, but I could be mistaken.
