I am a professional who does this for a living, its not an old wives tail. I went to school for engineering and then I went to SAM (school of automotive machinists). I know a thing or two about metallurgy and I know allot about engines.
cranks DO sag if you lay them on their side, then you WILL spin bearings if you are dumb enough to run the engine. we didnt buy this fancy fixture so we had a place to put a crank like an ipod case
shade tree mechanics don't build 30+ thousand dollar racing engines that win PCA, IMSA, NASA, SCCA, Porsche mobile 1 super cup races. these are the engines we put together for hobbyists..... never mind the pro level cars that need a complete tear down after 12 hours of operation
