I am sorry this happened to you.

If it were mine, I would find a reputable shop and have it redone. Yes, it will be expensive. However, it beats always wondering how far you will make it this time.

A Model A motor is surprisingly precise under all that cast iron. When Turlock Machine (or another reputable shop that specializes in Model A motor rebuilding) gets done with a Model A motor, the tolerances are exact, and you don't have to worry about it coming apart on you.
