You can not, well never heard of it......
BUT
you can use a 2.2 Bottom end of a Frontera BUT Venoms Sig say its been rebored and if he was using 2.2 bottom end it wouldent need reboring....
86mm Standard Bore
88mm 2.1
90mm 2.2 (IF your could)
using a standard bloke and i am sure you can not get 90mm Pistions
so eather......
- using a 2.2 block
- Thinks he can uses a 2.0 block and rebored it out and hasent looked into it

Only on the block yes, my next post will explain why, I checked with a specialised re-boration place before I undertook all the work. Then took it to be measured by them to be safe, saved £350 by DIY

I have dished H-Section Low compression pistons, with a recess, extra 25cc per pot, if I was to fit flat bedded pistons lets say for example Mahle products then the capacity is 2137cc as the 25 per pot are taken away and the recess is filled in by the mass of the piston tops.

The thing with MigWeb is, there is some informational people on there, I didn't want to post about my engine yesterday and I don't really like peole knowing what I plan to or am doing, but I've recently found out a few miggers don't know basic engine science, they've just listened to Johnny Ramble too much, done a few mods themselves and WOW! they automatically seem to have aquired 25years experience at some rally engine building school, yesterday I told mr Beard a wee bit about my car, as I know he was genuinely interested and I'll leave it at that I think, but what you lot don't realise over an internet screen is that this engine has been inspected and tested by a firm who builds caterhams with these engines and have done for over 14years since they became popular in the Cally T's.
I've also told Timrud_ as he's a local lad, seems to have his head screwed on and if he ever wanted to have a nosey he'd be welcome to, and I'd let him have a snoop at Rotherham, where we both go sometimes. That's as far as it goes until everything is sorted, and I have my stats all in a folder ready to show people(block figures,engine power,gearbox stats etc....)
