Can someone recommend a Bay Area automotive machine shop. I need to have some cylinder bores and pistons measured. I am looking to get the following done:
1. Bore diameter and out of roundness measurement.
2. Piston width at the correct location.
3. Top ring lash/groove measurement. I have new rings for this.
4. Cylinder to Piston Clearance.
5. Anything else I should check?
Alternatively, any fellow rennlisters that have the know-how and test equipment and be willing to show me how it is done?
I am in the East Bay/SF area.

While pretty much anyone can measure all this............why reuse? Someone should have a low mileage P/C set laying around. Last one I bought had ~40K on it, and picked it up for $3-400 (was part of a bunch of parts).

I think RMG in Sunnyvale uses German Precision in Sunnyvale. You could call Bob at RMG and ask where to go...if you are doing most of the work yourself he will most likely be pretty responsive.
