Default 107 build question

I have a 2016 SGS and am looking at taking it to a 107. My question is can you put 2017 M8 107 cylinders on the '16 103 motor? Have a chance to pick up a set cheap if they will work. Bore and stroke are the same just wondering if the cylinders themselves are the same.

Hey with a couple tubes of JB weld and some flex seal a man can do alot. Lol...but on a serious note there's a couple great choices of builders on the site...pick one and have them map out a plan for a build for you. If you already have a good stage one setup going big bore with headwork isn't too painful and the results are impressive. Good parts ain't cheap and cheap parts ain't good.
