m52 total block height spec?

[Mako18]

Whats the block height spec on a m52? I cannot seem to find a reference here or BF. Reason I am asking is this particular m52 seems to be milled way beyond the point of return. I know you measure from the crank saddle to the block surface, correct? Basically I want to know factory height then I can figure out how much has been whacked off. This is not my engine. Thanks trying to help a friend on the other coast.

Thanks

I believe it is like 210mm or something around there. Check BF.c's Forced Induction subforum. I know it is in there.
