mahles run into some serious $ when you get into the 3.2+ size. Anyone try the replated cylinders from ebs or others? Are they a long term reliable solution for a street car, or is it better to bite the bullet and sink 3.5k+ for the real deal? TIA

I am not sure of the cost, versus buying new...
But, replating if done correctly is the same thing as new. They machine it first, then plate it... Ask the guy who makes the nickies... Or search for the nikasil plating companies... Rich |
