I will say that I have put in studs and went cheap and didnt
have it checked.. it did live just fine.. had a bit of wear
on 1 or 2 of the main bearings... but if you are building a
nice engine.. have it checked
EDIT
when I built my 405 W-9 I was told the mains were
bored and honed.. I couldnt even turn the crank with
the caps on.. found out later he didnt do the mains
wave
