Biggest bore with a stock H sleeve set is 3-9/16 which is for the C-164 early Super H. It will be a thin wall sleeve set, and will take it from 3-3/8, to 3-9/16. You could go a bit larger up to the 3.5 overbore Super H kit, Just would be a thinner dry sleeve insert. Now, if you wanna get a bit bigger bore, insert the 350, C-175 sleeve and piston kit. You would have to bore the H block, to fit the 350 sleeve barrel, and then on the top flange on the sleeve, machine it to the H flange diameter. then you have the thick sleeves, and you can go to a larger bore, later down the road, if u choose to go bigger,, and all the hard work is done already! My honest opinion would be to go with the C-175 sleeve kit, and bore the block. makes a pretty stout H in div 1 and 2 type classes in low gear, and be a good solid engine for a farm tractor as well. The engine kits are the same price for either kit,, so, price the block work, then pick which kit to use. The 8043DD, has a slight slant on one side of the compression chamber, so it can be used with fire craters. I haven't measured the head yet,, got distracted,, it happens,, check back,, Ill check it later today. ChadS
