20b e shaft straightening?

I have heard of these being able to be straightened out. I have one here that is .027 out at the front snout. What’s the process or which company out there is doing the straightening? Thanks in advance

i think its pretty common in the piston engine world to straighten crankshafts, although a Ferrari shop might be better than the v8 shop, v12 is a longer crank...

or maybe more to the point, those guys measure cam timing at the front of the cam and at the rear of the cam, and split the difference, i've never heard of anyone checking a V8 like that

I'll say this, we checked on having my 20b shaft straightened, and were told if they did, it would be out somewhere else. However, mine is further out or alignment. Maybe you'll have better luck with yours.
