Nobody said standard FE parts could be used.

I haven't seen one of those blocks in person. I would have to say that they're on a different bore center, but then again, compacted graphite is known for its strength which allows the cylinder walls to be thinner....so who knows.

That's why it was noted that it's basically a completely custom engine....and sometimes guys want that. Hence the $50000 FE Cammers that make the same/less horsepower than a stroked 385 series engine.
