Default Thrust Cap

Preparing the block for line hone the new 4-bolt Program Engineering thrust cap needs to be cut to match the thrust surface in the block. My machinist has been struggling with an easy way to determine how much to cut off the cap. He has made some calculations based off the dowel pin location, but this is not easy as the dowl pins are staggered. It will be expensive for his time to do this process. Has anyone done this machining operation?
