can I do this with a dremel tool and a stone

[fiatnutz]

It's better if you do this on a milling machine because you can take out the same amount of material from each side. It can be done with a die grinder and carbide burr tool, a dremel tool will take you hours to do what I do in a matter of minutes. Good luck... John...

I want old age and wisdom over a speed freak with a die grinder anyday.

in response to a comment below. you can this with a die grinder a lot faster, without going hog wild with the die grinder, and still have top notch qaulity, because the tool is not mounted, and i do them all the time for 383's so no cheap shots. yet, when you get to those really long stroke trick motors it's best to do it like this as not to hit the water jacket by taking your time, and only removing the amount of material that needs to be removed to clearence correctly. thanks for the video's.
