Larry,
Any shop that has the ability to align bore the new bushings should be able to 
replace the shaft and rebush the channels.  My suggestion s to use a
standard size shaft rather than an oversize one as some peple suggest.  The 
reason is that a standard shaft occupies less space in the air/fuel flow.
