Turn a small drill press into a Bore/ Hone. Bolt it to the top of your engine block & do your own machining .
Good grief man. Cutting pistons with a band saw, running engines on kerosene for an octane booster, boring with a drill press? What's next? Port matching with an electric carving knife? Fly cutting with a 6" grinder? Valve job with a garden rock?
Looking forward to the "why is my engine down power", "why did my rings break" and "why does my engine sound like it's mixing cement" posts. For someone that doesn't want to give a machine shop any money, you keep making it more an more expensive to fix all the things that are gonna be screwed up.
Machinists and machine shops exist for a reason. If people could get decent results from doing it all yourself at home with basic tools, that's what everyone would do. I love working on my car myself, and I do just about everything myself too. But machine work I send out, because you just can't do it yourself and get good results unless you happen to own some really expensive machines, tooling, and have experience running them.
Will get my money back after a few jobs.
You think other people will pay you to completely screw up their engines? This was silly when it was your own engine, involving other peoples cars in this is just about criminal.
