I've replied on the classic-celica mailing list- basically, yes, 3T pistons are required in the hybrid we've suggested but the real worth of the hybrid is the increase in displacement given with the long-stroke (78mm vs 70mm) 3T crank.

So it's 3T crank, then 3T pistons flycut to suit. Use your existing rods if they're structurally sound. 2T-G block and head are fine, just be aware that an early models of 2T-G block may need to be machined to allow for 3T crankshaft clearance.

In terms of performance, the increase in displacement gives potential for more power, and the change in comparitive bore/stroke ratios will change the character of the 85mmx78mm 2T/3T hybrid engine somewhat. It'll be less rev-happy, but also more seem more torquey from lower RPM than a 85mmx70mm 2T-G. Trust me, it's a good tradeoff, especially on the street.

If you wanted to bore out the block, there are pistons available for a 89mm bore, which with the 78mm stroker crank will deliver about 2000CC. Be aware, though, that these pistons will cost you about $1200 a set and at 89mm your cylinder wall depth to the water galleries will be scant.

Standard bore 3T pistons are more affordable.
