World Products uses CNC machinery to machine the raw casting into a finished block. They will typically leave the bores unfinished allowing the customer to match them to the pistons he or she chooses to use.
Deck heights can be a little tall so a check of deck height would be in order if you are shooting for a minimum deck height finished project. If the deck heigh is consistent across banks and within a bank you can skip the decking operation and adjust dome cc's and piston pin height to get the compression you want to use.
The engine builder has a number of different paths he can choose to finish the engine. Remember this is not a race engine that will be torn down and scrutinized for compliance with OEM specs so as to provide a level playing field for a competitive event. These are fun cars with fun engine builds, for fun times driving our toys. they are not being raced in a rules based, sanctioned competitive event.
