I was looking into some weisco pistons and I was wondering whats the difference between 79.5mm 82mm and 82.5 mm. Would there need to be any boreing out of the engine to make the bigger pistons fit? and are there really big power gains because of increasing the piston size. Any help in understanding this is much appreciated.

so whats the reason behind making bigger pistons for the same engine? im guessing maybe when you rebuild the engine they bore it out a little and you need bigger pistons or am i wrong?
