Don't need longer jugs, just a spacer. 5mm works out fine for the
78mm stroke. Add more for longer rods, 1 to 1. Couldn't find a
source real quick for stock bores but they aren't hard to make if you
have a lathe. Use the bottom section from a junk cylinder for raw
material. Already has the notches to clear the studs.

Depending on what head stud set is already in the case they may be
long enough for the 5mm increase in head height. If not, longer studs
are available.

Longer push rods are very common and stock tubes can handle the extra
span.

No other parts needed.............
