I am looking for a machine shop that could bore out cylinders and possibly do some head work for me in the midwest. Fargo-Minneapolis area would be ideal, but I certainly would rather pay for shipping and get a quality product in the end. There are no local shops that I trust.

Is it customary to also ship the pistons with the jugs when they are being sized?

Any suggestions?
 
Just send the pistons and cylinder / jug to Jim Comstock would be my suggestion.

Comnoz on Access Norton.... only does Norton as far as I know.

I am sure someone will post if there is a 'reliable source in your locality.
 
Pistons need to go with the jugs for a rebore as the new pistons will have instructions for the final bore to hone clearances.

Also Leo Goff in Memphis. (This is mid-west to me. )

I just had a Kohler single bored locally and the machinist asked for the rings too. I thought that was great. Fit was perfect.
 
I emailed Jim, he isn't too far and it certainly looks like he knows what he is doing and has a great deal of experience. Hopefully he is not too back logged.
 
Another reputable place is E&V Engineering in Howard City Michigan. He supplied the pistons and bored the cylinders on my Bonneville
