Sleeves pretty much always need to be bored, since they can deform when being installed. I will find out for you. Their machine shop is at the Newark store, and I know the manager/owner there, so I'll call him to make sure they can do it, then they can get it there throgh the Pataskala store, or you could take it all the way to Newark. Their turnaround is usually about a day to day and a half.

cool thanks judd...and yea it does need bored, so i would be dropping the piston and the sleeve off together to have the sleeve pressed in and then bored to match the piston

wont be doing it right this second, since i blew all my cash on parts and xmas shopping, but definitely going to have it installed within the next month so i can put the quad back together

but if you could get me a ballpark price thatd be great

dropped it off at fowler since they were close to me.....i hope they do a good job, because im kinda wishing i woulda taken it to ERS....fowler is taking a long time on turn around....ERS woulda turned it out in a day, fowler said "a few days"...so i thought, no problem...after 4 days i called and they say "ohh...thatll take a few days"....so im still waiting

im just impatient i suppose
