Default bellhousing alignment

I have been running a Lakewood bellhousing. When I installed it I had the machine shop install adjustable dowels and do the alignment.

Now I just had the block line-honed,crank ground .010. Will I need to check and possibly readjust the bellhousing to crank alignment?

yes. the line hone moves your crank centerline up relative to the dowels.

That's what I thought. Never did an alignment before but been watching Youtube vids.

I'd check it,but a line hone rarely moves it enough to be a problem if it was ok before. A line bore, or new caps and a line bore likely will.
Glorious weather for Spring Carlisle, buy yourself anything nice?

Very few Pontiac parts to be found. Only thing I bought is a set of billet valve cover spacers.
