Guys, I realize this is an old thread, but I had a similar question to the original poster.

I've got a'67 Galaxie with a 390 that I'm hoping to either rebuild or to bore and rebuild. A few questions:

1. Are the machine shops recommended below strictly performance or would they work on a slight upgrade job such as mine? Also, do you have any further suggestions in the SE Michigan area?

2. What are my bore options for a 390 and would these parts be readily accessibly by a performance shop such as those that have been mentioned (Kinetic, Jomar)?

3. Any thoughts on how much either procedure would cost me? (Mind you, I've got the parts, just need the rebuild)

I realize I'm not in the same class as the Cobra owners here, but as a fellow big-block guy, I could use the advice.

Thanks in advance,
--Ian
