94 to 96mm bore and hone
Hi I am needing to find a business that can bore and hone a genuine Vw set of cylinders to 96mm. I have a set of AA 96mm cylinders but one is machined
0.020" shorter than the other three hence why I'm going back to finding a business that can do this procedure for me. my case is decked true so
it's not the case.

why not just machine the other 3 to the same length. ?
Easier than boring and honing x 4

Yes the AA's are made by Sum Ting Wong Inc. The original Vw seasoned cylinders are now at swift race engines in the same pile as Matt Berry's engine
pArts. Hope they do the job well cause I wanna be at Warwick drags in October.
