I have a picture on my computer where I notched mine but it was only one area on the block that had to be notched with mine.

#3 cylinder area, sorry I don't have any better pictures but you can get a good idea of where I had to grind down. this was with an eagle crank and eagle h beam rods.

Thats the kit I want to go with. Is that the only area that needs to be ground down? What about the bottom of the cylinder walls for the rods to clear?

yeah that was the only area. I remember reading something about it as well but after much, much checking and looking over, everything else was perfectly clear of the block.

with that eagle kit make sure you Check the part number of your main bearings before opening them. mine were 90-99 DSM clevite main bearings and they wouldn't return them because they were opened. but this is a problem that has been addressed to them multiple times from my understanding so hopefully they got it fixed.
