Default Wiseco?

Has anyone here sent their cylinders to Wiseco to get bored and fitted with pistons to do a 95" upgrade? I'm just curious on the cost of that vs buying a kit.
Also wondering on cost of porting heads vs buying SE or similar heads. Thanks for any input you may have on this.

I sent a set of jugs off a EVO to them for boring, fit to pistons, can't recall the exact $$, but I think it was about $120 PER JUG. They done a great job. They bored the jugs to the piston size, instead of just boreing the jugs and sticking the pistons in them, it's pretty easy to get 3 to 5/1000 over by just boring the jugs to a given size, this causes a piston slap that gets anoying having to listen to it.

Weisco does really good work, I run Weisco pistons, but I done the boring myself.

I sent my Jugs to a local shop to be Bored to match the 10.5:1 wiseco's. I think it was $150.00 for both jugs. I also sent a set of stock HD heads to Baseily for a Super stock job. The cost was $740.00 shipped. Heads will handle up to .640 Lift. Well worth it.

Thanks guys, I am going to see if I can get them bored and the heads ported in time to get it together before the riding season starts. If not I know what my winter project for next year will be.
