Lots of stuff.
85.5 90.5 and 94 are all the same wall thickness.
Engine width shouldn't be a problem in a 912. The compartment can handle a six with overhead cams, remember.
The wasserboxer crank you mention isn't counterweighted, but for the money is an OK option.

For the money it would be best to build the combo I mentioned. It will outlast the wasserboxer crank conversion, make more horsepower, and end up costing less IMO.

All Cima T1 pistons are made in South America now. NO quality problems, they've been made there and no Germany for many years now.

The 104mm Type IV stuff are chinese cylinders that Eurorace has cast and they are the only seller of those type around here. They sell them with JE pistons, forged, made in the US. (This info is off topic, they are for Type IVs, not Type 1 engines).
