Nikasil Cylinder NSC Plating Reconditioning for Porsche Engines

$408.95

Porsche aluminum Nikasil cylinder reconditioning using nickel silicon carbide NSC electro-plating; cylinders are honed to LN Engineering specifications. Cylinders are stripped, re-plated, media blasted, and honed before going through our extensive QC procedure prior to shipping.

So why do we charge more than other shops for this service? Like our Nickies cylinders, 100% of cylinders we recondition are quality control checked by LN Engineering in-house and measured (6 pointed with precision Sunnen bore gauges) for ovality, taper, and surface finish (Rk, RpK, RvK using our Mitutoyo SJ-210) to ensure the best results on your rebuild. If you don’t have the proper tools to correctly measure your cylinders – dial bore gauge, ring gauge, and profilometer, you don’t know if you cylinders are correctly finished. Incorrectly refinished cylinders can cause rebuilt engines to smoke and consume excess oil. Other shops that offer nikasil cylinder reconditioning don’t offer and can’t provide the level of inspection that comes with having LN Engineering refinish your original Porsche cylinders.

Factory Porsche Mahle or Kolbenschmidt cast iron or cast aluminum alloy (aluminum Ferral/Chromal/Alusil/Nikasil) cylinders can be reconditioned; cylinders without sealing ring grooves can be bored oversized during the reconditioning process. Overbores and deck/sealing surface resurfacing extra.

If you have an aluminum cylinder that is damaged where there plating or coating is gouged, we can fix that too (for a small fee). With careful welding, we can build up the area and have the cylinder bored out and plated back to its original size.

NOTES:

1. Surface grinding option not available for 2.0 911 and 914-6, 4 cam Carrera, or cylinders with head gasket or sealing rings grooves in the cylinder head mating/surface (deck).

2. The factory 3.3 turbo half-finned cylinders should not be re-plated or reused in our opinion. The same goes for any cylinder that is severely ovaled or distorted from overheating or damaged from detonation or over-boost. Tell tale signs of this damage can be found by performing a visual inspection of the sealing surface, rings, and pistons for detonation. Rockwell testing can also be used to test if any one cylinder is significantly softer than the others, it is suspect to be bad and should be replaced.

3. Reconditioning of original cast cylinders may expose porosity in the castings which will appear in the finished cylinder. Likewise, in some cases, there may be excessive porosity in castings that may prevent us from reconditioning a used cylinder and will require that one or more cylinder may need to be replaced. Likewise, do to the required etching process, cylinder heights may vary and require adjustment to correct for material erosion. There is no way to prevent this. By using this service, you acknowledge and accept this risk.

Price per cylinder including strip and re-plate. Please call us prior to shipping your cylinders to us for proper packaging and shipping instructions.
