lol... Well, I said "almost". Obviously you've got at least some experience building a really strong engine. And you know the bills they mandate spending.... The bore/hone and setting deck height is always something that needs to be done, unless you get a "block in a bag" deal from some of the suppliers and you'll still be doing something as you mock things up and encounter something else. At these levels, it's less of a "how much" and more of a "I want this..."
