The 920 that I built 20 or so years ago was put onto 750 Combat crankcases. This left one area due to the necessary machining where the crankcase mouth was very thin, and this was the left rear portion of the crancases (6, 7, 8 & 9 0'clock) but as I stated in my other post for teesrider, there were never any issues that arose from this. The 850 cases have more meat designed into this area than the 750 cases, and it is easy to see this when they've been bored out to accept to accept 81mm liners I/D that are 4mm wider in diameter than the 850! I believe that Pete Lovel will have machined the cases to the minimum acceptable clearance to accept the larger liners. Incidentally Roger at RGM always warned me that it wouldn't work and that it would break but despite many a good thrashing it has held.
So I would think that you could put 850 barrels on to the 200,000 + crankcases, but they would want machining to the minimal acceptable clearance. With regards to earlier crankcases, I have no experience or knowledge.
