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.

you will get a slight gain with the higher displacement, but the big gains are when you boost it.
