    Line boring cylinder block main caps

    I'm looking to have a couple of blocks line-bored and am after recommendations for a top class outfit that can line-bore cylinder blocks properly and accurately.
    Ideally as near to Sheffield as possible but I'm open to travelling if it is a firm that's skills are not in doubt (I'm fed up with firms who can't do jobs properly - that they claim they can do - so I want to use a company that is well established, high-end and tried and tested).

    Hopefully that's not too much to ask! Can anyone advise ?

    Try Park Engineering Malton near York. Done a lot for me in the past. Older generation of engineers.

    Paul Gardner Nr Garstang Lancs as done blocks for us in the past. All his machineing work is done in house and his workmanship is first class.

    35 years ago for general machine work we used Beckett and Garner in Sheffield but I fear they have long gone.
