Welp atleast most of that will be removed during the machining process.
So you have nothing much to worry about with the head.

But lapping the block is an entirely different story. It's not a quick job. I sanded on mine for a good while. You'll need a machined straight edge and a feeler gauge. You're going to need a sanding block long enough to lay across the block.

You have to remove the feeler or guide pins on the front and rear of the actual block. You'll need to stuff your cylinder walls with trifolded towels and you want to drop a bit below tdc. So you don't sand on 1 and 6.

Do yourself a favor and pull the damn thing and take it someplace and have it done right if you don't think you can handle it. It takes a bit the first time and you want to do it 1 fail swoop. Don't tear it down and let it sit for a few months.

I spent the better part of a year planning my build. It's nearly completed.

Good Luck.
