I've gotten a lot of little shit lately. Poly steering rack bushing, power steering pressure hose, wheels, etc. but....
Block is in! 
As well as a parts shop max sticker :p
Polishing ports... really you do that when the head is disassembled. If the valvetrain is already installed, you're kinda stuck with what ya got unless you want to take it all apart again (I'm guessing you don't want to do that). Just opening up the inlet of the port and matching the intake won't really do much to get you performance gains. If anything, you'll have one spot in the airpath that is larger than the rest and that will detune your port a bit... might cause you to lose a little low end power. If you're taking everything apart, you'd port & polish the entire airpath, but I think you just want to get the engine together, so...
So in short, don't port.
Also, engine enamel paint FTW lolz
If you still need that crank pulley or other bits let me know. Im gonna tare this motor apart. Plans have changed. Only gonna be here for two weeks
