I bought my World block from a well known Hemi builder. I paid him to prep the block since I ordered the CP pistons with the block it seemed logical to me. I then paid another shop to hone the lifter bores because they were to small to even put a lifter in, another procedure I had already paid for. Also to align hone the mains, as they were out. Then check the deck height and so on. I thought I was buying a block ready to assemble and it was far from that.
The World Hemi block that I bought requires a different head gasket than what I was told. Mopar Rich got me straightened out on that after I had problems with the wrong gaskets.
Other than these issues , which I blame the original dealer for, all has been good with this block.
