A precision straight edge, dial indicator gauge, and a V-block setup would be used to check the straightness of a crankshaft. The crankshaft is placed on the V-blocks, the straight edge is positioned along its length, and the dial indicator is used to measure any deviation in straightness.
A precision straight edge and a feeler gauge would typically be used to check the straightness of a crankshaft. The straight edge is placed along the length of the crankshaft to visually detect any deviations, while the feeler gauge is used to measure any gaps between the straight edge and the crankshaft surface.
with a ruler or anything that you can measure with
To measure a camshaft for straightness, you can use a dial indicator set on a precision surface plate. Lay the camshaft horizontally and rotate it slowly while observing the dial indicator's readings at various points along its length. Any deviation from zero indicates a bend. For more precision, you can also use specialized camshaft measuring tools that provide a more detailed assessment of straightness.
I THINK you use a plumb-bob
It will measure the engine rpm

Straightness refers to how smoothly a surface or line deviates from being perfectly linear, while flatness refers to how smoothly a surface deviates from being perfectly planar or level. In other words, straightness assesses the deviation from linearity, while flatness assesses the deviation from planarity.
Depends on what you're checking. A piece of window glass works well for checking push rods for straightness. A machinists straight edge is good for checking heads and decks.
