1st you need to find ou if your cylinder is nikasiled. If it is, there is no boring to be done, just slap a new piston in.
If it's not nikasiled, then it can be bored.
Boring bigger will not increase power or speed.

Yes u can go that big but I would just bore it to the next size over what you already have.That thing will run great.Had my lt230e 1989 quadrunner bore to 66.50mm and runs perfect. The stock bore is 66.00mm.
