Default Boring 883 Cylinders to 1200
Does anyone know what the minimum length of 883 cylinder skirt (spigot) can be?

I am boring out 883 cylinders to 1200 and because of the rather heavy chamfer on the skirt or (spigot) of the 883 cylinder, then the length of the skirt (spigot) becomes a lot shorter as the cylinder bore ID is increased, just wondering if anyone knows how short of a cylinder skirt is still acceptable.
