Orderable un-drilled, custom drilled or standard drilled.

Custom cam cores are pricey enough let alone if you end up with a lifter position that would require welding new boss locations. A revision to the casting is a one time change and it would still be usable for standard lifter locations.
Bruce, we better stay in front of the keyboard if we want to start a budget build 2.3 motor. That is as classy as I could squander.
