I need 2 Toyota 4A-GE cast iron 1.6 litre four cylinder Formula Atlantic blocks line boring and honing after fitment of steel main bearing caps. Who can be trusted to do this properly in the UK? I have seen some come back where the things are worse than when they went in for boring smile Thanks

Dave can't do this engine, it's too short for his Sunnen mandrels apparently, which is a shame as he seems to have some excellent machinery, Thanks for the reply though, any others out there?

I second that. Highly competent, especially in balancing.
