Yes block will have to be bored. When you get the pistons take your block an pistons to the machine shop you're using and have them bore it

i may have a fully built block for sale. block ONLY, no head. completely machined, blueprinted, honed, aligned, with 9.1 comp. wiseco pistons, k1 rods, .020overbore. arp headbolts etc etc. i just bought a whole new engine and tranny set up from another forum memeber. so i MAY not want this block sitting here taking up space. again NEW. never used.
