The slant block has 2 cast nubs near the deck surface on the driver side of the block Can they be cut off ? Not a question of actual performance gain more to satisfy my OCD LOL |

Yes I always cut them off. They can interfere with some gaskets and cause sealing issues. Cox Brothers Type gasket for one. |

Those lugs are called transfer lugs. They are there to give a place for the mechanism that moved the bock from station to station as it was being machined a place to grab the block. Once the original machining operations were done the lugs served no other purpose. |
