Default Re: Kwik way lbm

I have never seen a Kwik Way line boring machine but the one my engine rebuilder uses is probably similar. When I converted an engine to inserts, he tried to use that machine to bore the block. He now says "NEVER again!" He found that the machine, while fine cutting soft babbit wasn't up to cutting cast iron, especially as the cut was interrupted by the jon at the cap.
Maybe the Kwik way machine is heavier duty. I mention this because it nay be relevant.
I have taken other engines to a different company and I ma completely satisfied with their work.
