Abstract: A cutting tool for removing material from an engine block structure includes an engine block structure support sized to receive the engine block structure, a platform having a longitudinal dimension and a width dimension, and a cutting assembly supported on the platform and movable in a longitudinal direction along an adjustable rail, and movable in a direction approximately orthogonal to the longitudinal direction, the cutting assembly including a rotary cutter. The cutting tool also includes an alignment mechanism including an engagement structure configured to secure the cutting assembly to one of a plurality of predetermined positions on the adjustable rail, and an adjustment mechanism for moving the adjustable rail and cutting assembly in the longitudinal direction to position the rotary cutter to a desired position.
