Anybody have an approximate idea of how much it cost to bore cylinders from 1.8 or 2.0 cylinders to 96mm?
Does anybody have any experience with this? |

Ensure the shop that carries this out for you is using a torque plate while honing. The cylinders must be honed under load to be finisned without taper and to stay round.
We used to bore them for others, but shipping them to and dfrom without fins being busted was damn near impossible. The cost should be around 200.00 if done right. Only bore OEM cylinders with a part number at their bases, others are generally porous the deeper into the casting that you bore them. |
