This thread seems to be generating more questions than answers...  |
I once, many years ago, had a flathead bored by a guy with a Rottler (sp?) Boring bar. He said the bock attached to the machine via the mains, and 'referenced' the mains (?). I always wondered if he 'cockeyed' bored it to force the cylinders to line up with the crank center. This, especially after comments about the bore being worn quite a bit on one side, and his machine 'corrected' it. How the Rottler works is a question for another thread at another time. (He was NOT a flathead guy.)
