Doesn't look very milled to me, rather the typical Al-sandcast?

Not that I ever heard about Wuz, but there was a lot of strange things going on engine-wise in the late 80's and early 90s.

I just don't get the reference.. X.. - why does your mama see to your underwear requirements?

& what has an engine block image.. got to do with your knickers anyhow?

Unless, maybe - the soft cotton from well worn knickers.. ..makes for a superior polishing rag?

If you look carefully at my previous post, that block started out as a casting anyways, but this is guaranteed all machined!
