Personally I'd rather use offset dowels than have a shop try to machine it offset. If they try to machine it offset then that means you need to have that amount of play in the trans bolt holes. Maybe there is, maybe there isn't ! Just have them bore it on center then correct the runout with the dowels.




IMO the offset dowels are a PITA, I have limited machining skills but I've offset bored several BH's so that they dial in dead zero. The 833 bolt holes are about .050" oversized so that's no problem.
