I need to put new con rod bushings in and can press out the old ones and install new one my self. I can also redrill and chamfer the oil holes.

However, they need to be honed to size (and parallel to crank) which I do not have the tools. The local engine machine shop is asking $15 each (sounds a tad high). I have a small mill and 13" lathe but no hone.

Any comments/ideas?

Thank you
Charlie

Not an atypical price for here in So. Central Texas. They basically don't wanna fool with small jobs unless than can make a few extra $. Just make sure they size the crank to the next standard size in the rod bearings. AND double-check their work. They might put some apprentice on a small job like that.

You may have to give up eating for a day or so and pay the machine shop to hone those bushings for you! the clearance is very critical here as we're talking tenths of thousands here,( much more critical then big end bearing clearance)
