Looks like a very clean casting. Your moving right along at a break neck pace!

It's a pretty nice casting considering the mold and cores were old and just made for test fitting, as well as not even having a gating system set up for it.

The pace is not nearly quick enough for me.

I have to finish the rear of the block so I can mount a flywheel housing, and then I need to drill and ream the lifter holes, main oil galley, bore the cam and crank, and drill the oil galleys from the main galley to the crank. I also need to do the oil pump hole. A few more days, I suppose, and then I can hand it off to Prus Jr. to build for me. Hopefully, it will run right off the bat.
