Re: Westwood cylinder liners...
No they are parrellel , just don,t bore the block all the way through .
Stop about 3mm from the bottom of the bore and press liners against the step .
Must have done 100 blocks , never had one move

Re: Westwood cylinder liners...
How far can these liners be bored out to?
It says +20 on their site but I am sure I've seen references to +40 amd even +60.

Re: Westwood cylinder liners...
The WCL 13A can go to +60 no problem.
The std factory size liners are only recommended for +20 possible +30 at most
