5 to 7 probably. Can't see it being much more. Doing this myself soon, but going +90 to give 1700.
If your block needs reboring anyway, I'd go for it, otherwise may not be worth the hassle.

The only company I know of that do rebores about here is
T.M Smith
Unit 2, Palacecraig St, Coatbridge, Lanarkshire ML5 4RY
Tel: 01236 421113
Its been years since I had anything done by them though so I can't comment on how good/bad they are now, but they used to a have a decent
rep.
Cheers
