does anyone have any idea how much it costs to have sleeves bored to 96mm from 94mm? Is it better for me to buy a set of new Biral or cast sleeves?

Thanks,

There's a speed shop in Walnut Creek not far from downtown. They have done VW machine work and could likely help you along.

I think I know where they are. I'll give them a call. I may just buy new cast sleeves as they are only $50 each. I have a set of new stock pistons and cylinders that was damaged when they were shipped to me. All of the cylinders have either cracked or broken fins. I'll check the old ones to see if they are warped and if they aren't, I'll hone them out and keep them for that set.

Anyone know of a place to get JE forged 96mm sets. European Motorwerks in SoCal has them for $800 for the complete set including tax.
