of note, they said both motors knocked... which could also mean the the rods are making new oiling passages in the cylinder walls as well...

I was thinking chuck it in a drill and ratchet strap it to the bench and turn it on some emery cloth.
They are basically only good for cores if you are going to go the built engine route even if they only had a spun bearing. I priced out building a forged internals block and you are ahead just buying a built one from IAG, Map, or Outfront. Replacing the crank and the spun bearing would probably cost a grand when a new short block is only 1800 if you could do the work yourself.
