how much dose it cost to replace internals on a 420a engine and also would you need to bore out the cylnders to put a good set of pistons in it. and how much hp would this allow the engine. I am not a mechanical guy so if i said something wrong correct me.

You would need a machine shop to bore it out.

It costs alot to replace internals. Its like $700 for rods and pistions.
