why wouldn't you be able to? except a weber 32/36 seems like a step backwards on a 2.2 seeing as they came off a 2.0 in the first place.

no its not possible unless he is using a custom stroker crank as the max u can bore an G180 is to just about 2000 cc, then there bore walls arent thick enough. the bore would then be 60thou over G200 spec

Is a 3mm bore (dont know the thou terms) possible on a G180 so itd end up G200 Specs? (same stroke,3mm bore would mean same bore therefore same capacity?)

I dont know much about this, but out of all gemini reading i have neva seen anything about a stage 5, but heard about stage 3 and 4's being lumpy as dogs balls and being a bitch to keep on idle and stuff, so whats the deal with the stage 5?
