not ideal but I had the pistons and random block so why not.

I wouldnt advise it unless your prepared for total destruction. Better off buying a 200block if building a new engine for the sake of it. lets face it a 205 block is worth 100quid. For 500 more you have peace of mind.
7 years, Jesus you've done alright there but yes when it goes it's going to be bad.
I'm sure I friend of mines was 92.5 and went through the bore at that on a 205.
Why not save yourself a crank/ rods etc and stick a 200 in now?
