Yup.  2.1L is acheived by using a 95.5mm crank in a 2L block (92.8mm is stock 2L)
and 83.5mm pistons.  This yeilds 2092cc displacement, pretty much 2.1L.  I believe
that the 95.5mm crank can be had from some late model turbo diesels...can anyone 
confirm or deny this? BTW, you can figure displacement in cc's using this formula:
(bore x bore x stroke x PI (3.14159)) / 1000.  I'll keep everyone updated on how
things are going.
