Default LS2 Bare block as shipped bore size?

Does anyone know what diameter the bores are showing up with when you order an LS2 block? How close are they to 4.00? is there enough meet left to align bore them or are they pretty straight from the factory?

The LS2 bare blocks come 3.998" we would just hione it to 4.000"~max bore though is 4.020"~these blocks are straight,you would not need to do anything else to the block.Just a hone! SEE YA!

Default LS2 bore size

I've got a brand new LS2 block here I just checked for you this afternoon. Bore size is 4.001" Very consistent from bore to bore.
