Title: Aurelia Cylinder Liners
Post by: Aurelia Adam on 01 July, 2009, 09:11:26 AM
Found these "hot" cylinder liners on e-bay.

Presumably taking the engine out to 2750cc involves a lot more than just swopping the liners - still it would be fun to have a go.

All very well, but they are a bit useless without pistons to suit. I wonder did he have pistons made as well, and if so why not sell them along with the liners. Then there's head gaskets, and any mods that may need to be done to the heads. Seems a lot of work for very little gain in performance.
In my own humble opinion a well built 2451cc engine is good enough.
