I align the hole to the bearing on every racing engine I build. The actual grinding is very minimal to line these holes up. The reason I do it is to lessen any restriction I have to the mains mainly becasue I run a loose rod bearing clearance. If you think about it, the oil is going to travel the path of least resistance. If there is much less resistance at the rod bearing, the oil is going to tend to go that way. This could cause problems at high RPMs. Never grind/drill the main bearings.
