Brent, thank you for posting the ad about the burnishing machine. I learned quite a bit-most of this is over my head as well-but I learned that even in the 20's there were full pressure oil systems and shell bearings. I am guessing on the more expensive cars.
But, if burnishing the main bearings is more accurate than line boring I am surprised nobody has come up with an interesting way to recreate a burnishing machine. I am assuming it can be done with modern parts in a shop. Whether it is cost effective for a small time shop I don't know, but for a bigger shop?
