line boring delima

[larry harding]

i am build an engine for my speedster project. after waiting and searching for months i have the main inserts. a friend has a line boring outfit, but has only done modern v8s not an a block. another friend has done several a blocks over the years, but doesn't see very well. we have spent several hours this week with me doing the grunt work, but only helped on another line boring job a few years ago. we have now removed most of the babbit, but i'm a bit uncomfortable with the way things are going and don't want to chance ruining my block. Is there anyone around western n.c. or east tenn. that can do the line boring right? there is a guy not far away, but he only does babbit. he wont bore for inserts. suggestions please.
