Anyone have any recommendations for a reliable trustworthy machine shop that I could send a cylinder/jug to and have them bore it for me? Possibly send them the head as well.
if it makes any difference this is for an ATV not a Harley.
You asked a question but gave no information as to what you are working on.
When you ask a question in a technical forum, give people the information they need to make an accurate answer, don`t expect them to read your mind, you know....help us help you.
ok maybe this will help......
doing machine shop work on an American Harley Davidson is NOT the same as doing machine work on an Asian ATV,,,,there are soe similarities but there are more large differences!!!
some asian ATV's have nikisil cylinders and are not ment to be bored and honed. You need to find out if your brand and model are like that, since you didn't tell us what you are dealing with, we cant figure it out either...
Most HD machine shops specialize in HD stuff, the tooling and machines are set up differently, ,,,so in order for us to help you, put up a year make and model for your projcects, then someone muight be able to give you a reference.
