Do you know how much it cost to own a machine shop and the cost of the machines in there ??? And the skill level to do the work . I had a good friend that i had knowen since the early sixty's set up a shop and had the latest and greatest machines in that shop at the time and he could bore any cylinder from 1.500 to 12.500 on a stationary boring bar that centered off the center line of the crank that was state of the art , that little toy set him back over 400000 bucks a line bore that could do up to a v 16 diesel and another 250000 bucks along with all the other toys . When his heart gave out he offered me his whole set up along with use of his shop for one year for the small price of a quarter mil . Yep that was a bargain but there was noway i could come up with that much . could i do the work , yep ran everything he had as when he was really busy and i needed something done fast he would say well you know where the machine is and you know how to use it . The line bore was the only one that i had a problem with set up as it took me way to long to get it set . Probably because i had only done a hand full of line bores here and there . So never complain how much it costs . Guys complain about the price of refacing a flywheel , they have never had to buy the replacement grinding stone for a flywheel grinder as they do not last vary long becasue it done correctly one should face the stone after each cut and each reface takes life off the stone , i know of some shops that do not do this and when you get the flywheel back you will find a radius on the outside edge and not a straight cut .
