Blocks are cheap....If I ever blow my .060 overbore, I'll find another at stock or .030 and take it to the machine shop...
As for the difference between .030 and .060, it may seem like no big deal but I consider 25 to 50 extra horsies and 40 to 75 extra pounds torque to be worth it...
measurements are relative to what you expect from them...examples
33" vs 35" tires
5" vs 7" lift
38A vs 38C
.38 vs .357
There are a lot of .060 overbores out there, hi mileage ones too! As for overheating I took care of that with my 3 row GDI a few years back, and the stroker's getting an upgraded water pump during the build anyway. Might do a pair of LeBaron hood vents just in case... I say go for it...
But then again, why think outside the box, I mean, engineers would never design anything with room for improvement, right? They always get it right the first time right?
