If all you are doing is a standard overbore then you will need to order larger pistons and rings. The slight differance in size will not require any changes to your injectors or cam etc.

Have the crank checked also. You may need over size berrings. The machine shop that does the block and checks/turns your crank will tell you what size you need to order for all internal engine parts. Do not order any parts untill the machine shop has done their work.
