Can get the cylinder walls sonic tested and go from there. I know a local guy who did it using 6.0L iron block. Was throwing 250HP shot at it. It lasted for almost a full year.

4.030 is it. There is not enough to go 4.125 without a sleeve. If they could go this much wouldn't this be the better route to go rather than a 4.00 stroke, yes. Trust me it can not be done without sleeves been there tried it.
