migrating to 11i

I am in the initial test phase of migrating our Oracle 8.0.5.2.1 database and Oracle Applications 11.0.2 to Oracle 8.1.6 and Applications 11.5.3. We run this on Sun Sparc Solaris 2.6

In reading the Upgrading Oracle Applications Release 11.5.3 documention, I read on page 1-14 that Applications 11i requires an blocksize of 8k or larger and if the current environment is 2k or 4k you must migrate the database to a blocksize of 8k or larger.

We currently have a 2k blocksize. Has anyone faced this issue before? Can you give me a overview of your solution path? I know I can re-create the database using imp/exp and setting the blocksize to 8k but is there another method? The documentation said "must migrate the database to a blocksize of 8k or larger". can this be done during the migration process?

Assistance is greatly appreciated..
thanks in advance.
