Hello Zilvia!

I'm currently rebuilding a engine for a 1991 Mazda Miata. I was a dumb dumb and didn't set the crank properly when installing piston #3 and nicked up the journal a little bit. Do you all think i should cut it or run it as is? Its for a dd car, not a race or track car. I have included links to the pictures of it above.

Thanks!
