all you haft to do is tell the shop man what you want an he should know what piston size you need to get 14 horse or more. he can order you a rod an the right piston an head gasket'' good luck. hope it works good.

Machining prices and parts prices vary widely. Do you want to use B&S parts or aftermarket? My local guy gets $30 to bore a 1 cyl, $35 to turn a single cyl crankshaft, $25 to do the valves and lap them int, $10 to surface the head, while some large shops might not want to even touch a job like this. Since your taking so much more out of the bore in this case, there may be additional cost.
