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???????
Beware of the Goldfish in the tulip mines. The ONLY defence against them is smoking peanut butter sandwiches.

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!
