Yep, the top row of head bolts were not drilled and tapped. Have to call and get this resolved.
Thanks for the heads up on the hemi oil drain back holes. I had no idea what they were there for. Not sure why they put them on an RB. They are drilled straight through to the sump and are not covered by the head.

Ship weight was 340# so around 320 sounds right for the block.

Yes, the rear main has alignment dowels installed.



Sorry if I was unclear, the dowel revision was actually in the seal retainer.
All 5 main caps were doweled from day one, but the seal retainer was only doweled towards the end of Chrysler's engineering involvement
with the product.

The head bolts and drainbacks are just errors.
I know I speak for many here when I say, if you'd take the time
to report how they take care of you, we'd sure be interested to know.

Best of luck to you.
