Years ago, I had a old friend who was a machinest at a garage/machine shop. He told me how they would take a car in the morning, and rebuild the engine (with the block in the car) and have it ready to be picked up at the end of the day. They had some type of grinder that they could grind the crank in the block if need be. He taught me a lot that has helped me with all my trucks. But the most important thing he taught me was NEVER take a shortcut, it will come back and bite you for sure.

When the garage closed, he bought all the machine equipment and for many years after his retirement he ran a machine shop in his large shop. The knowledge he had was unbelivable.
