the fact still remains. ask any reputable engine builder. if you replace rod bearings in a motor with a scored crank, it will not have the same longevity if you had the crank machined.

I have a decent selection of your everyday tools but I’m not sure if this is out of my league.

Sorry to say but if you have to ask if this job is out of your league it probably is. I would recommend reading, then watching someone experienced who knows what they are doing do this before attempting it
