I looked this up and the article made it sound a who lot easier than it is. I
bore out small motors (outboards) on my mill and have thought about grindings
cyl for a while. You need some kind of rotary table (that I have) that would
turn or a cnc machine that would move to make this work. Just having a
grinding wheel on a mandrel you still have a long way to go.

I saw this machinist tip from the publisher of Home Shop Machinist and
Digital Machinist and figured some of you guys who like to do your own
machining on small engines in the J and K category as well as small bike
engines might find something useful here.
Grinding on the Mill by George Bulliss

I'd note here that an imaginative machinist could easily gimmick up a power
down feed for the mill spindle for the slow feed plunge grinding process
George Bulliss describes.
