It'll be fine. It's not like I had to remove a lot. I didn't even take off .002 and I measured all the way around the journals before and after to make sure I could get it as even as possible. I've seen these cranks being polished and you can stay on them for a long time before you remove much material. All the steel in these engines is super hard.
