Sure, if you can figure out a good way to put flatspots on the piston skirts, rings and sleeves.

Nope, my understanding is 2.2 also....

Also, I wouldnt even venture a guess at what this thing will cost........... $1500, $2500, $4000. They can kinda name their price tag when the next closest 4.125" bore block is $6K.

If this is anything like the other aftermarket blocks from WP then you should be able to bore it. I wouldn't say .125" over but .060" would not be out of the question.
