The block needs to be finish honed to fit your particular pistons, so there's not a "one size fits all"

I was just looking to skip the machine shop, like the prepped Warhawks. I think they are available in 2 finished sizes from World. Besides wouldn’t you need a 6 bolt torque plate? I don’t think that there are many machine shops around me that would have one.

Yep! The guy who does my machine work won't even hone a block without having the pistons for it to measure individually first. I think SDPC was talking about selling pistons and blocks together in a do it yourself type package. Give them a ring.
