Might be best answered by the Victoria blokes but in NSW we can go to 149 without an engineers report.

Best to get the word of an engineer that you intend to use, but I have herd only a 10% increase over standard capacity is accepted so 138 + 13.8 = 151.8ci max 
, dosn't give you much room to move

I think Trev is right, 10% is what I was told by the local mechanic.
Still check with an engineer to be sure
