    Prob my two best choices from Nashville? Would be to ship cylinder to Hall's in Springfield Illinois or Forest Stahl @ Advance Tool and Die, Yorktown Indiana. They will bore and get piston for you.
    I've used other places but I've had some come back with bore crooked and the piston seized.
    Power seal in Pennsylvania does good work as well.

    I would agree, the only two cylinders I had trouble with were with folks that have not done Huskies. Forrest would be great to use. Also Rick Horvart in Ohio is also a good choice.
    They also would know the best clearance to bore your cylinder too. Rick has available at certain times pre bored cylinders that are ready to ship on exchange basis to save time.
    Both would have all the other parts you may need.
