Do you have any pics of the scoring? An ls2 that needs boring to cleanup the liners is basically trash as not many can go .030 over.

That's true I guess, although much more expensive than a light bore/hone. Still would like to see some pics, have a neighbor that is going to build up a 347 but if this block looks ok might be able to sway him into the bigger cube motor.
