what is the crankshaft stroke and cyl bore?
is it the conventional 392" specs.?
will a stock 392 bottom end do the job or do you have to upgrade.
i assume pistons and rings are something special at least?
is this a non mds cam or did you modify it for your cam?
i have a 2012 5.7 from a 2500 truck with 80k miles. i understand its not an mds cam. do you know if this block is different for the non MDS cam?
i grabbed it because its not mds. do you have an opinion?
sorry ive did not see the build specs or build post on this motor.
but it looks simple and reliable..and for that kind of power.. its got me motivated .. thats plenty for my needs.

Your block is the same as all the other 2009 to 2017 5.7 blocks no matter or not they have MDS. It is a VVT engine, all the 09+ have VVT. You have nearly the best heads. I have torn apart quite a few with 300,000 miles and they show almost no bore wear and the bearings look even better.
