I have tried to "stroke" a 2.1l block and went as far as having custom piston made from JE to make it happen. I then found out that the block
internals had to be gound away in spots which made the block walls thin. And then found out that the counterweights on the crank would have needed to be modified (ground for clearance and then made up w/heavy metal) to balance out. In a nutshell, a 2.3 liter crank won't fit in a 2.0 or 2.1l.
