Hey John: Was sitting here scratching my head - trying to imagine how the rod journals could possibly be ground in the car (given the stroke/throws of the crank). Did this magic gismo somehow handle the rods as well? I'd love to see that machine in action! And I imagine it would take a hell of a skilled operator to use it!
