20psi?? Umm.. I'm guessing you're sleeving this block right? LOL, I should hope so! What do you mean by what size piston? You mean what bore? I'm personally going for a 78mm bore with GE sleeves, gives me about a 1740cc displacement vs. 1590cc stock.

When i had my block sleeved i didnt oversize it,went with the stock size cause i figure the thicker the cylinder walls the stronger they are and the more boost they could handle.
