[Healeys] conversion 100/6 engine ---> 3000 engine

[Alan Seigrist]

Erik -

Depending on how good / centered the block is, sometimes it is possible to
bore out the 100-6 to 3000 bore.  The ideal solution, however, is either to
get a 3000 block or get 3000 sleeves and machine them in.  Otherwise it is
the same block.
