Truckbiz, that's what I thought, but like I said, I've never done the procedure before. It seemed to me that if you set up the boring bar exactly the way it was and installed a replacement #2 bearing cap, you could simply rebore #2 and all would be good...the other three wouldn't get touched and #2 would now by in sync with them.
51cowboy, it that interests you, consider talking to the shop to see if they would be willing to do that. If they continue to be stand up, they'll give you the old block back because it is junk to them anyway and will correct #2 with the replacement cap.
You can PM me so that I can contribute the replacement cap. The only thing that I ask in return is that you keep us posted how it works out because I think that several of us are curious!
