the ports come up to the cylinder at an angle, so theoretically if you bore it you move the face of the cylinder out and therefore farther down the path of the transfer ports. but Angus, on a sleeve, don't the ports intersect the face of the cylinder at a 90 degree angle? however, if you did a 240 kit, you would be removing some of the material from the jug, and that would lower the ports.
yeah, those are the same numbers i'm getting 89custom. the jump makes sense tho, if you look at the difference in stroke between the 2 it is 3mm. use that as the stroke. you get (pi)((72.5/2)^2)(3)= 12.384 cc's, which is the same as the difference, 247.7-235.3=12.4 (the first one rounds to 12.4)
