You could try Cylinder Head Services at Moulton. I don't know if they do rebores.

There used to be one in King street in Kettering. On the right hand side of the first block from rockingham road. He used to call himself DGE engineering. Apart from him, I know all the others that I ever used have gone /ceased trading.

There is or was another engineering firm in Northampton, AE engineering, I think their name was on, Bunting road. I know they did cylinder head work but I am not certain if the did boring and grinding.

Hope this helps mate, have you blown up another engine???????

Not near Kettering or Northampton but I can recommend Cambridge Rebores in Burwell near Cambridge . No connection just a satisfied customer. Big Wasa if you have no luck with Lindale Engines try Lyndale?

I can third that, although he's not done an engine for me, I have seen HUNDREDS of his engines at the big autograss meetings and have yet to hear a bad report, which in the fickle world of engine building is reccomendation indeed!
