I'm looking from my phone but the chambers on those heads look really rough at best

Haha are you talking about my polishing work? Or that they were rough in factory form? Either way, they are better than they were.

These are 70s c-10 small block mounts. Does anyone know if they make solid steel ones?

I want you guys' opinion on these next pics....Im a little confused as to what went on while my block was at the machine shop. Im not saying the shop did this BUT, the block was perfect when it left my house :/


This is on main bearing surface #5. It looks like it got hit by something. It just barely broke off the edge. I dont think it will hurt anything. What do you guys think?






Heres the second spot that was damaged. This is on main bearing surface #2. It was 2 nicks in the metal. I sanded them down with 1000grit paper so there wouldnt be any high spots. Im not worried about this one but it still happened.
