Looking for a good place to have my +15 A65 cylinders chromed / overhauled ?? They have around 650 hrs since bored from from original to +15

Think I am probably looking at cylinders that are flat worn out. Iv'e been using a shop locally to try to help keep these going, but they are right at the edge of +15 limits, with nothing more that can be done with them.

What have others experienced with the various options of NuChrome, Nickel or other processes. Valve train on top should be fine as they went thru them about 40 hours ago.

Also, can't seem to locate info on the pistons. Is it common when cylinders are bored +15 to change to oversized pistons or just oversized rings?

Solicited Info would be appreciated. :-]
