Re: Engine Build-Up, Step by Step

Hi,

block looks good, just one question;

As you've spent alot of time paying attention to de flashing the exterior of the block & porting various internal parts of the block; did you not consider radiusing, smoothing & polishing the lifter valley features? I appreciate it is coated in some goop to aid oil return but as you are blue- printing the block as a whole it is normal standard practice to pay attention to the valley.

Regards,
Martyn
