Whilst toying over various ideas on how to get a short stroke 1l engine, I came up with the mad idea of boring out an 850 to take imp pistons. Based on my maths standard imp pistons give 980cc and +20 thou pistons give 1005cc :( I don't know if +10 thou pistons exist.

Rob, Do you want to tell us the alternative way?

Would it not be easier to start with the 970S engine, if you can find one.

I am still of the opinion that it is far easier to get power from boost rather than revs, so why bother? I had a good read of the old posts on high reeving 1l, well what's left of the posts anyway. Boost might give more power than revs, but boost & revs gives more power still. Isambard Kingdom Brunel said:
