I was reading up on a B18 rebuild until a new motor appeared in my life.

Phil Singher has a good write up. http://www.vclassics.com/archive/engine1.htm

Of specific interest to your question is the mention of "voids" in some B18 blocks. The risk is that when you overbore the cylinders you hit a void and your block becomes little more than an excellent boat anchor.
