Yep, that's it.
Same principle, just more holes to plug. On factory FE blocks, you watch close for the oil passages going from the cam to the mains and from the cam to the decks. On aftermarket blocks, you check everything, including the side main galleys. For water, anything is game on a factory block. On aftermarket stuff, I've found most issues are in the lifter bores.
How does a new block have drill-through of side main galleys? I'd think today's CNC capability would be head and shoulders above 1960s technology, plus the aftermarket blocks are often beefier than the originals.AC
