Well....things don't look to be as perfect as they seem. I took measurements of the crank saddle to deck, the cam bore to crank saddle and the cam bore to deck. The right bank seems to be close from front to back but the left is terrible The rear numbers on left and right are very similar but the front left numbers are way different than the rear. I did not take a measurement of the inside diameter of the rear main but the front was 2.4915 that was with a caliper not a inside bore gauge.
Nothing spectacular but I used a 6 inch general tools caliper http://www.homedepot.com/p/General-Tools-Fraction-Plus-6-in-3-Mode-Digital-Caliper-147/100651811 and a harbor freight pittsburgh 12 inch digital caliper https://www.harborfreight.com/12-inch-digital-caliper-47261.html. This isn't the most precise way to measure but this gets it in the ball park and definitely shows some inconsistencies.
I think before going back to the machine shop I'll wait for the rotating assembly so I can measure the actual depth of the pistons in the hole so I can tell them how much I want off and where.
