I am using avisynth filters on mine(still tweaking them as i type LOL),but using the aspect ratio calculator of Citizens,i will not be eliminating the black bars altogether,because it is a 2:35:1 ratio,so there are still small bars,what did you convert yours to,1:75:1 or 1:85:1 widescreen?so with this ratio you will have it blown up a little(like you said)the reason i ask is i am new to making anamorphic widescreen,this will be only my second release that has been made to 16:9,and after reading your reply, i am curious how this will look,because by all my numbers(for 16:9 WS)i am going to have the black bars.
thanks for the reply and info StarngeLove9,also i left you a mesage @ TPB
