jl ray, some of these guys are making this way more complicated than it really is. What actually happens is you ask around about who runs a good automotive machine shop. Then you give them a call and tell them what you are doing and they will give you an idea what it will cost. Then you drop your short block and head to if you wish off with them. You will go over with them what services you want and don't want. They will give you an idea of when it will be ready and THEY WILL ASK YOU "DO YOU WANT US TO GET YOU THE NEW PISTONS, BEARINGS, RINGS" you have a little more discussion and say "YES". This insures that the bearings match the crank as it ends up being ground, and that your pistons and rings will be just right for the bores. There is no way of knowing exactly what the final bore will be or how much the crank needs to be ground until it is done. THIS IS WHAT THESE GUYS DO, not me, not you.
