For good home lathe, whether US made or others. Home, I meant things most of us have, not from some special lab. Good meaning average like new quality. It is abit hard for me to say.
So, what kind of precision can it do? Can it do piston pin level fitting? I don't know what the gap is actually. But things like that, or injector plunger. All very smooth and tight fitting, would a decent home machinist lathe with a person who has good skill, but not god like-can do anything type, be able to do it?
I am sure some super high quality lathe can do it, but maybe it is not a lathe thing? Maybe they need to precision grind it, something like centerless or something of that sort.
