Who do you guys recommend to turn and polish a crank in the Cinncinati area?I am about an hour northeast of Cincy,so i can travel either way.Bischoff race engines will do it,but they dont like doing them because they have to change their whole set up to turn one.

Got another question,i got a case that has been clearenced for a 84 crank and NO# 1 rod smacked the case right above the cam bearing,will the case be o.k. to use,even though the top of the cam bearing has no material to support it at the top corner.Its just a little missing a little bit,as are the others,but they were clearenced like that.I can put up some pics if that would help.
