i need to get my cylinder bored and probly a little head work, my machinist has moved off and i cant locate him. i am looking for someone that is reputable and at a reasonable cost. i would rather find someone local but will ship my parts to get bored/ machined.

Ive seen too many budget bore jobs that save $10 or $20 and prematurely wear out a $125 piston kit and cylinder. Only Wiseco does my boring now. Average turnaround from shipping out to receiving finished product has been 10 days for me. If you take teh studs out and send a clean cylinder, charge is $50. They also can supply wrist pin bearing and gaskets.

there is a guy in my area where i live that does boring, and stuff like that but i would never trust him witha cylinder becuase everything he does only lasts a few weeks and is shot, and plus he charges an arm and a leg, he is not reputable or trustworthy at all.so i cant help ya at all on this one.
