I have just got a Rover 75 crank and want to stroke my M42 out to a 2.1

Can anyone advise on the cheapest / simplest route to take please?

I am no mechanic so am going to have to get the work done. I would like to understand just what it is I am asking them to do though.

Thanks

Hi ive got an m47 88mm crank for mine but im wondering does anyone know the part number for the correct je piston to use in this conversion? It would be great if i could just order some pistons and send my lump off for machining.
