I had the Waukesha on my 1940 RC done at a local machine shop and they bored the sleeves .010 and fitted new oversize pistons that they said they had no trouble locating. There was plenty of wall thickness to play with. One rod bearing had spun and the journal had to be spray welded and turned. Again, they had no problem finding bearings. A good machine shop has access to stuff that we can't begin to find on ebay! It starts on the first or second pull every time and runs like a champ. Good luck!

[Waukesha FC parts may be W.A.Kraft New-Jersey.
FC engines were used a lot in forklifttrucks
Another possibility is army dump as they were used to drive airplane starter
generators.
