i highly doubt anyone on here has one, they are extemely expensive. Though I know turbociv had his race motor built at klispie machine shop in hamburg, but i don’t think they have a deck plate.

Yeah, they are, but i think they are still honed. But if you send it off, I’m betting they have that kind of equipment.
