Rebuilding is the only thing that applies. We did learn honing, all the finite measruing, installed heights, degreeing of cams, etc.
I think machining and rebuilding are two different fields in the real world with the exception of engine builders. They rarely install and engine, however.

Dead on, couldn't have said it better.
I also went through the ASEP program, what a small world.
