   Yeah, I guess I was thinking he was taking the engine apart. And, really, if
I had a bore that worn, I'd sure be thinking about putting new bearings in as
well. If you're using a ridge reamer and a hone, it's pretty hard to get the
grit out of the spaces around the crank, and if you don't get it out the engine
is not going to live long.
