In deep now

The LH wrist pin is very seized in the rod. I split the cases and will press the pin out at work. I am thinking I will have to bore 1 over as the LH piston is pretty beat up and there are some marks in the cylinder wall. I wanted to send the jug to the guy I have used in the past for my RD400 boring but his boring bar only goes to 64mm. I also want to have the head looked at. I am in the St Louis area but do not know where to have the work done. Any suggestions?

Darn!
I use a shop in San Antonio and get really great results.
I send the cylinders and pistons and they return the parts ready to install.
I do clean and blast the cylinders before I send them which helps the overall cost. .............lm
