papa_smurf49319 Posted June 30, 2009 Report Posted June 30, 2009 Looking for a good shop to bore some cylinders and port them in michigan. Quote
shanYE west Posted June 30, 2009 Report Posted June 30, 2009 A&S, RDZ, RB racing are a few off the top of my head. Quote
Isaac_62 Posted June 30, 2009 Report Posted June 30, 2009 Lakes motorsports in waterford is cheap, fast and does a great job... Quote
Larry's Shee Posted June 30, 2009 Report Posted June 30, 2009 X-2 on Lakes Motorsports, have known Mike for years. Has helped me on several projects. Has a kick ass deal on E-bay. Don't remember exact details, but it was Weisco, bore, hone, champher ports, gaskets too I beleive, package deal. I think on his e-bay add he payed return shipping. Those of you not local check it out. BTW, he does the boring in house. Also, when I was in his shop couple weeks ago he was running a special on Weisco pistons. Another place in SE Mich is Vitos in Oxford. Have known Paul there for long time also. I think they also bore in house. These are the two I would recomend!! Quote
shanYE west Posted June 30, 2009 Report Posted June 30, 2009 I've dealt with lakes also.. but I noticed he wanted a port job also.. Quote
Larry's Shee Posted June 30, 2009 Report Posted June 30, 2009 Lakes does porting, and also has a dyno. Quote
shanYE west Posted June 30, 2009 Report Posted June 30, 2009 Lakes does porting, and also has a dyno. Yeah, I know.. I used their Viper sleeves an had some dyno time. Its Lane's dyno if i'm not mistaken. I used to live right down the rd. from them on sashabaw. Lakes just isn't the first thing to pops into my head when someone wants porting. Quote
Isaac_62 Posted June 30, 2009 Report Posted June 30, 2009 He ported my bike. Runs hard let me tell ya... I cant really compare it to HJR or fast, cuz i never ridden one or had one so. But Mike does great work.. ill vouch for it... Quote
2strokesmoker Posted June 30, 2009 Report Posted June 30, 2009 X2 for lakes motorsports! Mike is a great guy. If your shit aint right hes by your side until it is!!!! A++++++++ Quote
trickedcarbine Posted July 1, 2009 Report Posted July 1, 2009 I've dealt with lakes also.. but I noticed he wanted a port job also.. lakes is pretty sweet at porting as well. I had those dicks at magics lose my cylinders and penny is super bi-polar so I never know how I'll get treated. FYI the cylinder incident was while chuck was there and he's gone now so I don't know how service is now, but I hear alot of their machine work is begining to trickle down the street over to mike at lakes. Plus after magics got my stuff back it was all jacked and hacked. Mikes wife assured me that he would help get it right and I'll never go any where else to get machining. Porting maybe..... but mike's stuff is way titties also screw tech care, all they want is your money and will practically make you pay for follow up tuning q&a Quote

Hey fouledout, how were those viper sleeves, Mike mentioned them in case I was going to have to re sleeve before he ported my current set up, hear the exhaust is huge!!!! Quote
Dinner Posted July 1, 2009 Report Posted July 1, 2009 I had my engine ported and rebuilt by RB. Rob does some good work, cheap and pretty quick turn around time. He's also great to deal with and get a hold of for any questions you have, etc. Quote

If you "need" to resleeve and your not looking for a pure drag engine.. I suppose it might be a viable option... I wasn't overly excited about them. Quote
papa_smurf49319 Posted July 1, 2009 Author Report Posted July 1, 2009 ya i plan on rebuilding it myself, done it once before, just need a good machine shop to port and bore the cylinders. Looking for an aggresive trail port like herrjuggs offers. Something in the 250 range Quote
