All you engine builders

How do you cut your notches in the main caps? Block just came back from being line honed and the notches in the caps are gone and I need to cut them back in. Do I just use a zip cut wheel and a file or take them back have the notches cut back in? :scratch:

We did one onr time with a zip wheel on a dremel and it came out ok. Practice on a peace of steel first to get a feel for it. Good luck.
