Try Jay Smith Racing, he's in Dayton.

Larrys Outboard Machine, he's in Irving, Texas

I just got a 200 sleeved at Larry's. He did a hell of a job. He's kind of pricey but worth every penny.:D

If it's a Merc Make sure you use either merc or pro marine pistons. The sierras aren't worth a pinch of monkey crap.

thanks guys. if either of you have it could you give me larry's machine phone #. also, have either of you dealt with tribble machine in waxahachie, tx. before. i had an omc and an inline done there a long time ago and his work seemed ok. as far as pistons i was gonna use pro and get them from nick. another dude i know was trying to sell me some vertex cast pistons that i think are made by weisco. any thoughts. also how about ring squeezers. i have an automotive band type and i have a split type that i use on a lot of jug type motors i build but i think its gonna be too big. i was looking at the merc. piston ring installation tool in the service manual and was wondering how well it worked. i have most of mercs. other tools but don't have the piston ring installation tool. any comments on the best ring squeezers and vertex pistons? again thanks alot guys.:D
