Re: why polish my crankshaft
none the less your explanation makes sense if applied to a crank shaft and i actually learned something. when i read the OP's question i was thinking of the journals and not the rest of the cranks surface.
good job.

Polishing your crank shaft journals will level out any variation to ensure everything is smooth and flat. It is a must for post journal machining work to remove any inconsistencies left behind in terms of tooling marks.

yes i am dumb. but you must have even greater levels of dumb to start talking about transmissions when a crank shaft was the original subject.

Hey dumb ***, you don't polish the counter weights. The only part of a crank you polish is the journals. Its to get rid of any blemishes and create a nice and smooth surface for the bearings.
