Engine Boring
 

I need to bore my engine .020 ever to put in some wiseco pistons.
Anyone know a good machine shop in the Chicago area to do it?

Also any shops in the Chicago area that would dyno tune a parallel MS1?

i was at a shop in schaumburg, ... he does dsm tuning but he said he could do megasquirt too i think its like 300 buxs for him to tune it on the dyno, i want to say the name of the shop was labooma? it was a fuuny name ill ask my buddy he took his dsm there. and i hear opel is a good shop for machine work. i have a bp i eventully want to get machined and put together but i would like to take it to a shop that has done mazda's im not really sure who to trust, let me know what you find out

Thanks for the info! i also have a bp and just trying to find a machine shop that has done one, i mean there are guys in the Chicago area with built engines so i am wondering where they got it done.
But if nothing comes up ill give opel a try.

I had my machine work done at a shop in libertyville IL. Had the block bored and cleaned, cost me around $280.

What was the name of the shop?
Did you assemble it yourself?

Talk to Ted at opel. That's where I had mine done. It's a little pricey, but they do really nice work. I could have ate off my motor when I got it back.

The local NMCA guy recommends them. If it's good enough for his 632 C.I. nitrous big block, it's good enough for me.

Hot tank, bore, hone, crank polish and final cleaning was $380 IIRC. It was a few years ago. I had the stuff back in 4 or 5 days.

APS was the name of the shop. Its also a carquest. I did my own assembly but they do offer that service as well. The head machinist there is the instructor at the local community college.

Jorge Carillo at P&L Motorsports is a great tuner. We flew him in to do Subaru tuning days here in MD. Megasquirt isn't listed on their website but I'm sure he can do it. They're a bit pricey though so depends on how much you want to spend.

Jorge is a great tuner, he can learn just about any system on the fly.

Ill give them a call and ask if they can do MS.
So it looks like ill take my block to opel and if P&L can do ms ill take it there if not then ill have to find another place, im going for 300whp

Try AMS for tuning, I know they have tuned MSPNP..Chris is a great tuner.
