Ive aquired a new block for my car after the last one threw a rod. Its a c16xe block with a .5 overbore. Will it run fine off standard fuelling and management or do you recommend ftting bigger injectors and a FPR or different management?

from what ive been able to gather .5 is the standard overbore for vauxhall. So it should run fine as it is.

It might not be the case but from a related thread from 2007 Mr Warren G said its Vauxhalls own overbore for when blocks are re-bored. You never know though!

To be honest it would be more powerful than an engine with 4 holes in it that shouldnt be there

yeah standard injectors will be fine might need to change the fuel pressure slightly but this can easily be done with a wideband test.

You wil be fine, wont make blind bit of differance, engine draws air in, map sensor senses amount of air and injects fuel as it should, no fpr, injectors etc to change or adjust
