I have a GX 340 that I would like to bore to 88 mm. I am having trouble finding a machine shop that can do the job. The cylinder angle is the problem. So, I would like to find out if anyone knows of a shop, within driving distance of Reading, PA, that can perform the task.
 
not trying to be a ***** but wouldn't u be better of to guy a 390 block I have seen them on ebay for 60 to 80 bucks
 
I bought a complete GX340 from a rental place for $30. I have the 88mm piston...just need to bore it to fit.

For less than the cost of boring that block out you could likely have a considerably larger engine.

parts to covert are less that 200 dollars.
 
I'm going to stick with my plan to bore the block. Yes, I could source a new block for the cost of the bore work, but, I'd also have to buy a side cover which adds to the cost, making the new block a lot more costly.
