Default Racin' Mowers

Anybody here have any experience with hoppin' up the engines ? I've been
asked to mill .045" of one from and OHV motor , don't know the brand . One
thing O found after I clamped it to the mill table , the area over by the
pushrod area is about .005 down from the area around the piston . No obvious
difference in the appearance of the original milling looks like about a 10
or 12 inch face mill on the surface .
If this guy likes my work , there are 4 or 5 more who want the same thing
done . I guess you could call this redneck racin' in it's most basic form .
