Yes they can, I did this about 20+ years ago and used +.040 pistons. works out
to 87mm. Mine were bored in a lathe and then honed to fit. It's better to do
them in the block as it's much easier to hold them and less chance to distort
when chucked into a lathe.
So short answer is yes.

Subject: can I bore 86mm liners to 87mm?
Listers,
...Do you know if the stock liners on a TR3B (86mm) can be overbored
to 87mm?
Thanks in advance
