Anyone coming across a new AMG 6.5 block that has unfinished bores.

Yesssss there are some out there. I bought one this past winter and it looked great.

I had to buy all the dowels and plugs, get it bored and honed.

This past weekend I discovered that the mainline was .002" under spec.

If you or anyone you know stumbles onto one of these blocks, be sure and check the mainline before assembling it.

OR at least check the main bearing clearance.

These are good blocks, but had some anomalies during machining and ended up online rather than the scrap heap.
