Weston Machine Shop
Just got back from Weston Machine Shop a little while ago, and below are some pictures as promised...Darton Liners that I was telling you all about. They are really beefy, and doesn't require much removeable of material on the stock block - this is the way to go for hp level between 400-550hp.
