Engine Rebuild
hey I would be really grateful to use your service, just took apart my engine m278, have terrible borescore on 4 cylinders, if I take apart the engine and send over just the lower block, since my heads and cams are all good and I can do in house, would you be able to rebore, sleeve, and piston the engine? Would that still be 2,000? Crabkshaft is in great condition, and I’d be getting a engine overhaul kit. I’m located in California so I’d have to ship the block

Yes contact Holland Automotive Machine in Holland, MI. You’ll be talking to our service parts guy his name is Tim. Tell him you’d like to ship us the block and he can coordinate everything and give you an accurate quote which will include a bore, hone, and resurface of the block.
