I have a renix motor, so my TB doesnt enck down like the new HO stuff. I was planning on boring my TB out to the 58mm, or maybe 60 like the HO's. What do you guys reccomend to bore it with?

A boring bar. I assume you have a Bridgeport or reasonable facsimile?

use a drill press and a 60 or 62 mm drum bore to do it. once u do it ull want to round off the edges around the holes inside the barrel, and use some extremely find grit paper by hand to smooth things out
