Any NE. Ohio machine shops that can install lifter bush

I over honed a lifter bore by accident. I either need a OS lifter body or a new lifter bore bushing installed.

Ive called 3 shops already, 2 said no, and 1 Precision machine hasnt returned my call yet. Jeffs a member here so he can respond here if he can.

I know theres another Mopar shop intown [ Canton] , but cant remember there name. Theres also a few shops up by Akron/Cleveland that may be able to install lifter bushings. But I dont know there names, Thanks in advance , Mike

Give Mike at Shane Machine in New Philadelphia a call. Does very nice work.

Your not to far from Best Machine. Take it there

You might give Bill Baker a call at B&K Racing

X2 on Bill Baker. Great work! Great people!

Gables in Akron....Manchester/Waterloo Rd
R&R Machine on Arlington St. in Akron
Allan M&S Machine in Wadsworth....Bracket Racers run this shop...Very good work

Call Nick at Compuflo in Medina....Dont recall if he can or not

Thanks for the info and personel input guys

Josh, Best machine is about a 5 hr round trip for me. Times that by 2 for delivery and pickup, its not the best scenario for me, though I absolutely have trust in thier work.


The New Philly, Akron, area is definately closer, 30 minutes. I need to check out where Bloomfield is for Bakers, and see how close that is.


Does anyone know the max acceptible clearence on the MP .904 lifter bore for racing.

Dan/Dram??

From what I can gather its around .002 but I think thats for the smaller diameter chevy/ford lifters. I cant find the recommended number anywhere in my books.

if it gets nwere you cant find anyone close call ryan @ shady dell speed shop he can do them

Call Jerry at Crank and Sleeve in Girard Ohio.Im pretty sure he can do it.Very reasonable and does superb work.Tell him I sent you if he can do it.Rocky

Sport440,
First off, thank you for thinking of us, and sorry to not call you back. I was told that someone called and asked about lifter bushings and that they would call back.
Unfortunately, we don't have the correct tooling to do that job. It is something that I want to have, but just haven't pulled the trigger on yet.
I would take it to Larry Sheppard in the Akron area. He is a long time Mopar engine builder and has done that job for us a few times in the past. I believe his phone number is (330)644-2000. If that is not correct, you can call me Monday at the shop and I will give it to you.
Tell him that I told you to call. Also, stop in the shop sometime and say hello.

How about Koffels, they have a location in Huron Ohio and a quick mapquest says about 2hrs from Canton. They are just north of Norwalk and I'm sure they could do it for you

Baker is located on tr 87 less than 1 mile west of rt 11 in Green twp.
Approx 1/2 hr north of Youngstown. Northern Trumbull county.
