was this already machined?  if not, you were going to take to a machine
shop anyhow (right?) If you are planning to put it in an engine with
new bearings, you'd want to have the crank mic'ed out, turned if needed,
and then polished...  polish is about $20-25, turn/polish is about
$75-100.  they will turn it .010", .020" or whatever is necessary and
then you buy the appropriate bearing shells...
