A +20 thou rebore on a 3.5L Rover V8, possibly a crank grind too, but havent got that far in yet.

I can recommend G Blands in Barnsley. They did a rebore, head skim and hardened valve seats on my Pinto...really helpful.

Stanwood in Bawtry, very very good.

I found a place in Sheffield, although I can't remember who But by the time I added up the costs of the rebore for 8 cylinders,
the cost of the pistons, rings etc; It was cheaper to buy a known engine.

another vote for stanwood never had an issue with them
