Yeah, they basically work like main caps on the crank of a Chevy/Ford. What his problem is that there's a big score in one of the heads and they're just overall worn out. He wants to deck/mill down the heads and caps to the holes are too small and then bore them out to perfect round again. He said line bore, I'm going on what he said. This guy is a fatalist though, so I doubt they really have to be line bored
