I went for bust on that engine and fitted new liners and Mahle pistons. By no means the cheapest option but I sorted it in the early eighties and it's still going strong now.
Oversize liners can be fitted with the Brivadium liners. Dependent upon the state of your head and how much it has been skimmed you will have to choose a suitable piston to correct compression ratio. One of the options discussed years ago was from MG TD but there must be a few options at 66MM. Slight variation in gudgeon pin diameter can be accommodated by fitting new small end bearings.
