Do not rebuild your engine with a reground crank. It will not last long, apparently the hardening on the crankshaft as it comes from the factory is so thin it will not withstand any regrinding.
The best thing you can do now is to whip that crank out and bin it. Get a new one along with suitable shells and ARP conrod bolts and you'll have a bullet proof engine.
There are lots of posts on here about it, but have a look at this for starters; viewtopic.php?f=3&t=5037
These guys sell genuine stuff at great prices; http://www.billcar.eu/BillCar.Limited/engine-parts
