there is some performance gains but imo its not worth it....thats the max of the cylinder wall bore and if some things happens you gota sleeve it or scrap it. only way i would go 82 is if the cylinders are that bad and have to have it. which may be your case, but shops that ive dealt with wont bore until they got the pistons also.,
