The cross hatching on your cylinder should be steeper, closer to a 45 degree.This is of a car cylinder. But a better view of cross hatching
Yea his building skills are pretty questionable at this point! I will check for crosshatching tomorrow when there's more light as for a pic won't be able to unless someone comes over with a good phone or until I get my phone fixed or replacedDoesn't sound like a very good builder, if you could get a pic of the cylinder up that would tell us a lot. Does it have good crosshatching, here's one ken posted, how it should be, but it is hard to see in the pic
Thanks for the response T
That cylinder depending on how bad it is has a bore or 2 left in it.
If you go the new cylinder route, watch out for the cheap "new" cylinders on Ebay. A few people here have run them, but had to do a lot of work to get them to that point.
Look for a good OEM used cylinder on a low bore. Get it freshened up matched to a piston, and your well ahead of the game.
Thanks a lot that's prob the ones I was looking at too! niche brand for 150$ So how about the dome it has some good gouges,nicks and dings in it get a good used one of those too or can it be resurfaced
You have a good head right now! Just send it to KOR to get it modified. Then its cleaned up, you have more power. Kind of killed 2 birds with 1 stone.
I'm not sure of the exact price Ken charges for the mod, but its money well spent when your into your blaster this far.

That honing leaves a lot to be desired!
That honing is the worst job that I have ever witnessed. I could do better with a wet brick!
There are still vertical scores in the cylinder which should be machined out!
I can see no chamfering of the ports.
Just who is responsible for that work?

Lmfao "wet brick" well Blaaster I sent it to a small shop in tonawanda,NY called Akron Motorsports I'm not sure if he did it himself or sent it somewhere else or what but I'm pretty pissed I gave this guy 700$ for a "full rebuild" every gasket he replaced leaks air or fluid not to mention the cylinder situation I mentioned the exhaust studs being stripped n he says I seen that wtf do you mean u seen that y didn't u fix it then the one head stud he helicoiled came out when I took the head off and the drain plug was pretty mangled n he said he didn't want to mess with it I got it out no prob and replaced it I'm about 1300$ into this blasty now n it's not in running condition and needs all new bearings tie rods sprockets chain I got 5 kids and had hoped to get the whole family into the sport eventually but Im ready to throw the towel in now! I just don't know what to do anymore everytime I deal with someone I get screwed over seems like

Question, would you be prepared to have your engine built in the pictured environment?
