Well, there you have it! Townsend is good but bently you can sit on your fender. Don't forget about the bolts/studs thlat are on the (false) bulkhead end of the engine from the bottom. Machining is subjective. use a quality straight edge and check it carefully. If you don't know how have someone do it that does. If you have it machined be sure to tell the shop only a light skim cut to clean it up. perhaps 0.003" . Many machine shops take 0.005 to 0.010" or more so they can get the job done quickly. You really don't need to take this off as you wnat someone else to have the opportunity to do this again. If it is a nice car it might go 400,000 or more! Good luck. Take your time and be sure everything is clean and goes back together to look as it did before you took it apart.
