    well they should be that brush is alot of coin for that machine . just a note here you can over brush the walls . the midly chamfer is a thing i do on every bore less its still there from stock like the sbc have way to much.you should ask him if he breaks the edge off the bottom of the bores thats the one is were many guys screw up
