Default b20 overbore okay or no?

Alrights heres the deal i have a B20 block im buiding and i accumulated all my parts.. heres a rundown of the block setup... B20B Probe h-rods, arias 84mm dome pistons 11.8 compression stock bore 84mm and a block guard... took it the the machine shop and i just heard from them today... i guess the block cylinders are out of round and i iether need a new block to run those pistons or i get bigger pistons... i have been having trouble finding another block for a decent price so im looking at pistons...

now he said i can run the 84.5mm perfectly but my question is would the stock cylinder walls hold???

this isnt going to be boosted... but i know the b20 is already known for thin walls...
the whole rotating assembly is going to be balanced... i plan on reving no more than 8K, cuz thats where the cam should peak at... so what you guys think??

Should be okay! Alot of us have overbored the stock cyliders; 8k+ miles on mine with 12.5:1 and hard use. Obviously you'll have to get new pistons. New arias pistons $400, new B20 block $100. Choose wisely
