Default Looking for a Machine Shop...
Looking for a machine shop preferably in the Houston area with a CNC boring bar to bore the cylinders in my block.

LME is the only one I'm aware of, but just looking at other options.

Try H Squared Racing engines. Beau@817-271-3412

Not sure about the boring bar you are talking about but... He has a full machine shop and specializes in LS.

Thanks, but I'm about 99% sure he doesn't. He is an experienced and capable guy, no doubt, but I'm specifically looking to have my block bored on a CNC rather than the traditional style boring bars.

Maybe Trumble Racing engines in Pasadena/South Houston. They have all new style equipment and build all the killer stuff.. (Outlaw, x275, etc etc).. Everyone else I know will have the traditional bore machine.
