IS this right?
I just got a new block yesterday and it .020 overbore. There are these chips at the bottom of they cylinder wall. Is this block still usable or no? Is there anything I can do to fix it instead of having to get a new block? It got sold to me this way so if it is not ok I will take it up with. I appreciate the help guys.

EDIT: The block came from GTM I am not sure if they did the work on it or not but it came from GTM.

are those chips from impact or grinding marks?if they are impact i would at minimum line hone since those marks are on the upper part of the crank saddle.grind marks just take sharp edges off and clean up real good.
