I don't have a reamer, but many moons ago I sent HD8 carb bodies to
Apple Hydraulics for installation of new bushes--std. size IIRC--and
throttle shafts (I think the bushes were undersize then reamed, but not
sure). Was happy with result, service and turnaround time (NFI--but if
Apple wants to give me a kickback I'll take it). Don't know if WW Auto
(Peter Caldwell) does this, but they'd be a good bet if they do, too.
If you go oversize, will the shafts still fit the other hardware
(linkages, etc.)?
