Hi All,
I have finally found the time to strip my 1800 TC engine which is in a kit car and was originally in a 132.
It had been standing for quite a few years so I am not surprised to find some corrosion damage in the bores, so it will need a rebore.
Can anyone point me in the direction of a trusted machine shop I can approach to get the necessary work done, I am in Kent(UK), the more local the better!
Also, I am hoping oversize pistons are still available, if so, what sizes?
Thanks in advance for any replies,
Rob.

Thanks Guy, I’ll give them a try.
Are you able to advise on availability of oversize pistons? Are you able to supply these?
Thanks,
Rob.

Re: Engine Rebore
NO!!!
All I supply are GC forged pistons made by JE
what you are seeking - virtually unobtainable.
Beware of US sourced cast alternatives.
