This may seem like an odd question; my Lugger has just gone through a complete rebuild, sleeves, pistons, cam, head, manifold, water pump and new bearings on the crank. My question is: shouldn't the crank have been sent out for turning if new bearings were installed? I've rebuilt a few gas motors in my day and the crank always got turned when new bearings were installed. Is it common in slow turning diesels to just throw new main and rod bearings in?
Thanks
