Mistakes happen, I was very happy that they accommodated me on my tolerances and the salesman found a piston that let me hold a real tight tolerance, worked out for the best in the end.

Yep torque plate and also brought the block up to temp then bored and honed it. Only real machining I didn't end up doing myself. I was lucky the teachers knew a great machine shop to send it out to.

Thanks for the compliment
